Ford has reds, blues, and monochrome in shades from white to black. I paid $400 more to get the only color I really liked.

BTW, my laptop screen does a poor job of reproducing rapid red. Looks like race red. To get the full effect I have to tilt the screen to just the right angle to get the fulleffect of the tinted clearcoat.. Give that a try.

Yep hard to duplicate Rapid Red in a picture. In person it’s beautiful, Rapid Red replaced the Ruby Red they offered in 2019 .

Love the 2-tone trucks. That was the only thing mine didn’t have that I wanted. I do miss caribou as a secondary color but the newer ones still look great. Glad to see y’all taking advantage of some of the great color options available. My dealer only stocks white black and gray with the occasional 2-tone w/white. I think I have the only Bronze Fire in six counties! Your truck will be a knockout. Are you getting the chrome pkg? The rapid red really pops on the nice trim trucks.

Same here I usually get a KingRanch because of the two tone option. I’ve had three of them , this time I didn’t like the interior of the 2020 King Ranch . Too much orange leather for me . I ordered a Platinum this time and I do love the Rapid Red . I even put the Rapid Red on my 5thwheel.

I wanted rapid red… but couldn’t find one when I was finally ready to buy. Ended up with velocity blue….

This is a great looking combo!

I ordered my 450 in fall of 2019 , hard to find a rapid red the way you want it sitting on the lot .

Ask and you shall receive. A few different angles and lighting. 2020 Rapid Red over Stone Grey. I initially was upset when they got rid of Ruby Red. My wife's Expedition is Ruby over Pale Adobe so they sit side by side. I like this combo better. And no offense to those without the two-tone but I just think it makes the truck look so much better.

A two tone to me looks “grown-up”, more polished if you will as compared to a one tone which feels more “sporty” to me. I’ve owned them both and like them both.

The two tone above is beautiful!

Looks great!! Great minds think alike, my wife’s expedition is Ruby Red also. Is the rapid red just a touch lighter than the Ruby red? I haven’t seen them side by side.

Yes. I would consider it to be a little lighter but definitely brighter.

And as a comparison of solid vs two-tone here is a picture with my buddy's Platinum vs my Lariat. Obviously lighting is a little different in the pics but both are '20 Rapid Red's born about 2 months apart. Both were before we accessorized.

I’m glad I got the two tone
