For 2021 Ford stops the Saber and Lightning Blue colors on the Ranger . In my opinion the best they offered . When I ordered my 2019 it was the only colors that I considered getting . Who are these decision makers ?

:Edit: I'm wrong. Velocity Blue is the new color.

Both are being replaced by similar colors. Cyber Orange and Antimatter Blue I believe. I like Lightning Blue and Antimatter equally but I prefer Cyber Orange over Saber.

I was wrong. Velocity Blue is replacing Lightning Blue and it's pretty close to the same color

Actually they're not even close. Certain pictures/lighting make them look similar but I've seen the Velocity Blue several times up close and it's a lot lighter than the Lightning Blue. This picture is more true to the color.

Toyota has a pretty solid set up for the Tacoma colors.

All years get Black, White, and I think Red. Then each year gets a fourth special color for that year only. Maybe it's that perywinkle blue, maybe orange, maybe a deep forest green or OD green or camel tan. Something like that to make that year pop.

Never know until they hit the showroom, but AFAIK, Cyber Orange and Antimatter Blue are not available on the 2021 Ranger. Cactus Grey, Velocity Blue (replaces Lightning Blue), Carbonized Grey (replaces Magnetic) will be.

So the owners of a Saber Ranger can do some Saber rattling :crazy:

Any color you want, as long as it's grey or blue... WTF is up with that? Henry Ford the 1st must be calling the shots again.

Velocity Blue is also an F150 color for 2020-2021. You can see it "live"on a dealer's lot and in the Build & Price configurator,
