HotLap, I leave the Brilliant Silver to you!
I changed my order to White Sand Tri-Coat Metallic. My build date remains the same 3/23/09. So you may be the first to post pics of a Brilliant Silver Platinum on here. :rocker:
I just kept liking the WS more and more, and I started worrying I'd get sick of the silver on such a large canvas for so long. My thing is that I LOVE my Arizona Beige, both the color and the fact it's so easy to keep clean. That was a big reason for my silver choice, but I kept creeping back to the White Sand. At first I didn't think I liked it at all, hence my initial order choice. But I kept going back to Barritia's pics, and then I think it was Steve who just got a Lariat in WS, and in the light in his pics the color just really took off for me and changed my mind. So enjoy the glory my friend! Luckily it didn't affect my Build Date. It took 3 days before the order changed in their system, so I waited until it was confirmed today before telling anyone. Because my order had been scheduled they were not sure at first if it would take a change at this point or not. My ordered Platinum: 2/12/09 Order Date 3/23/09 Build Date 2009 F-150 4x4 SuperCrew PLATINUM White Sand Tri-Coat Metallic Black w/Sienna Brown Leather 145”wb 3.55 Limited-Slip Sony NAV w/700W 10-Speaker Sound System & SYNC Power Moonroof Full Coverage Rubber Floor Mats Bed Extender Tailgate Step Remote Start Drop-In Bedliner Molded Splash Guards |
Keep it clean. White sand looks horrible when it's covered in road spray, winter roads, etc.

WS is by far the easiest color vehicle I have owed to keep clean. It is also best looking when clean. No regrets here.

Congrats on the '09. I'm sure it'll look great.
BTW, color doesn't make a difference in how easy a vehicle is to keep clean, some colors just hide dirt better than others. :thumbsup: |

Comet - cool glad to see you got the color you wanted and were able to change it!! I just found out my build date is 3/23 as well...perhaps they will roll down the assembly line near each other:thumbsup: I too like the White Sand Metallic and had chosen that color 1st. But then the I saw the brilliant silver and it was all over for me...will be (almost) as easy to keep clean and I really like the way the silver blends the tailgate panel and especially that horrible tailight chrome trim. Good luck and I hope mine's right in front of yours on the assembly line. Mine's coming all the way to the West coast so you should have yours 1st:beers:

I just ordered a Lariat. My order date was Feb 16 and my build date is Mar 9. Why is it that the Lariat's and Platinum's have different build dates? Is it because of the factories they are built at?

Saw this truck today after seeing this thread last night :)
It was overcast when i took these pics, so the color came out slightly off from what it looked like in person (much darker then pics, almost looks like regular white in the pics) http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0/DSC06878.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0/DSC06879.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0/DSC06881.jpg http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0/DSC06882.jpg |
Thanks, Patman! :beers: I like those close-up shots, gives a better idea of how deep, reflective, etc. that color is.
