Help me pick a color?!

Hello All -

Been a long time forum member on other forums, and have recently (in the past few weeks) been reading up on the F150's in this forum (great forum BTW!). I was born and raised on GM....but I test drove the Titan, Silverado, Ram, and F150. The F150 rreeaally showed well, especially inside materials and ride quality. Long story short, I'm working with a few dealers on deals.

Anyhow, anyone care to rank these color combos for me in order of your preference? I 'believe' I've decided to go two tone (which I'm fairly sure on now....but who knows, I reserve the right to change my mind ONCE again). I'm looking at Crew Cab, 4x4, Lariats.

Black/Beige
Wedgewood Blue/Beige
Dark Stone/Beige
Green/Beige

Thanks all!
Travis

I really like the looks of the Wedgewood/Arizona beige combo! If I had gotten a Lariat, that would have been a top choice.... I settled for black/drk shadow gray... but get what you want as they all look good and since you're getting a Ford, it'll look good no matter what! Welcome to the Blue Oval gang

cottonhead - Of course I'll get what I want, it's not like I'll add up the votes and then go with what other thought. I'm just having a hard time and was looking for others opinions....

Thanks everyone, keep them coming. I'm 'thinking' I would like to stay with a more neutral color (though not 100% sure). My 'current' ranking was something like:

1) Dark Stone/Beige

2) Black/Beige (honestly, may be in this spot due to easily accessible black lthr interior)

3) Wedgewood Blue/Beige

4) Green/Beige

I REALLY like all of these color combos (as well as many of the others like red/beige, but I HAD to narrow the list down)...especially after spending hours upon hours searching the forum for photos. The Dark Stone/Beige was my first 'wow' color when I was looking at the F150, and my wife loves it....so that's why I 'believe' it's still at the top...today that is.

Keep them coming...thanks all!
Travis

Do they not offer Wedgewood Blue/Silver anymore?

I'm a little biased but I like the silver under better than the beige...

Of the color combinations you gave me, I would have to go with the Dark Stone/Arizona Beige as my first choice. Everytime I see trucks with this combo I think they look really nice!

Black and Arizona Beige looks sharp as well, but then you have the nightmare of keeping up a black truck, which I wouldn't recommend even to my worst enemy!

Incidentally, I have a Medium Wedgewood Blue truck by choice -- I special ordered my vehicle. While I love this color on a "monotone" truck, I am not a huge fan of it when it's combined with the Arizona Beige.

I guess I'm biased as well.......

This color combo isn't as common as the rest, at least around my neck of the woods. Looks great with the tan leather interior too.

It's like you read my mind (I've owned black vehicles as well....so I'm VERY hesitant to get black again). Don't aget me wrong, I think black is THE BEST color when it 's clean...it's just the bear of keeping it that way.

Wedgewood Blue - Interesting...you can get it in a solid color? I was wondering that, but you can't even build it on Ford.com as a single color.

Thanks!
Travis
