New color for 07

I turned in my Black 05:

For this White Sand Tri Coat Metallic:

It's also been called White Chocolate in early press releases.
It's a Lariat and Lincoln color only.
It's also the first time I've seen factory pin strips on one of these new F-150's.
The pictures don't do it justice, it is a nice paint in the sun light.

She options out like this:
2007 Crew Cab Lariat
139” Wheel Base
White Sand Tri Coat Metallic
3:73 LS
Black Leather Heated Captains Chairs
Audiophile
Reverse Sensing
Trailer Towing
Moon Roof
Power Rear Slider
20” Wheels/Tires
Satellite Radio

Still to come:
Magna Flow
Air Raid CAI
Troyer Tunes
Bilstein Shocks
2” AS Leveling blocks
Bell Tech Rear Sway Bar
Silver Turn Signal Bulbs

I have all the "still to come" stuff, it was all on my 05.
Just need the time to put it all back on this one.
I don't think I'll put the Harley Headlamps and Tail Lamps on this one.
Thoughts?
On the truck or the Harley lamps.

I prefer the old color, but I'm biased.

I really wanted that color when I was shopping for a new F150!!! In order to take advantage of the 0% APR for 72 months I had to stick with an ’06 model. So I got Smokestone. It too is a Lincoln color having only been offered on the F150 for 2006 and Lariats only.

I think the very first thing you should look into is the Lincoln door handles!!!! I really love that White Sand Tri color!!!!

looks great! so is it like a pearl white?

I wouldn't put the HD lamps on this one, unless you went with all white bumpers too, then it might like ok with the HD stuff.

LT handles and maybe the new Hella 3-piece LED rear lamp set would look great on there! hmmm, I'm tempted to get a new 07 just like yours!

Very Nice Color. Definitely go with the Lincoln door handles.

To bad the bumpers weren't painted to match...

Very nice.

Ive seen one in my area. I thought it was white until I got up close. Then I thoguht for sure it was a lincoln because I recognized it as a lincoln color. I went all the way to the back to check, coulda looked at the big 150 badge on the side.

I just noticed that the extcab was a 5.5 box. Do you like that short of a box?

Paint the door handles and mirror caps to match the truck.

Ryan, your LS is not the same color. It's either Ceramic White Tr-Coat, or Cashmere Tri-Coat. AFAIK, the White Sand Tri-Coat is an all new color for 2007. Nice looking car though.

Right on! Ceramic white tri-coat. Did the white sand not replace ceramic?

That's a great color. Not sure I could ever keep it clean enough, but it's great.
