Correct. I ordered mine in Rapid Red. No sport, FX or Chrome pkg. All red!
You have great taste. Your truck is beautiful. I like the color match with the red. Although I would still buy the chrome package. But I'm old school. I like chrome. But if I was going to get a solid color truck and be that red. It would even look good with the black sport package. I don't know why ford chose magnetic as the sport color and not just black like everybody else

If you like chrome, does this strike your fancy?

I like chrome, and I REALLY wanted chrome bumpers (not painted), but the chrome package was just a bit too much chrome for me. But I absolutely LOVE the Red.....

No! I love the white! I came darn close to ordering the Platinum White but I wanted the Med Stone leather and didn’t think it went well with the white. I ordered the Rapid Red instead.

White works much better in the hot sun down South. When I was stationed in Texas, I bought a white ranger for that reason. The interior was a powder blue. Let my roommate use my truck when I was on an FTX and he rolled up the windows all the way and parked it in the sun and melted the cassette tapes that were in a cassette box on the floor. Several hundred dollars of tapes in the dumpster.

White doesn't work as well up here in the semi-frigid north. Blends in too well with the snowbanks. Red is a nice visible color and warns the tourists to get out of the way. Damn things are such pests.

Ha!
Think you got it bad in Maine???
I urge you to drive in Honolulu, more specifically in Waikiki with all the lost tourists and kamikaze cab drivers! Not to mention all the one-way streets there to compound the problem....:crazy:

True, most people don't like the Northeast for 8 months out of the year, but I think its the perfect time. I always thought of Hawaii as a place populated with visitors. No one actually lives there, like in Las Vegas

Your misconception of Hawaii is comical, Oahu's population is 1.1 million, excluding visitors.
Woe is me, I've been a "visitor" here for 65 years...how will I ever live?

Its not like you can drive anywhere :crackup:

I know people "live" in Hawaii, but its mostly visitors...like Las Vegas.

There are places in Maine where you can spend weeks and not see anyone else. Its nice. Too many people in once place causes our species to become insane.
