What is the best Ranger color?

[SOHK_Alumni]

The best color is the one on your own Ranger.

I wanted a monochromatic look and did not care for the Black package wheels so magnetic on magnetic works for me.

The best is silver, as that is the color of my previous gen Ranger that I drove for 16 and a half years.

However, magnetic is a close second. Since magnetic is what the dealer had with the options and price I wanted, magnetic is what I got this time around.

Its hard for me to choose because I actually like a lot of the colors offered, except for black and white. I was going to go with Magnetic but when we were on the lot my wife said you already have a car in a similar color and your other one is silverish...do something different. She pointed out the L. Blue w/ the Fx4 package and I actually loved it in person. However when I had the truck pulled from their over flow lot...there was a Saber that caught my eye! Really liked that color but it didn't have the package I wanted.

I really like the L. Blue and it's nice since I never go that route. It's hard to vote but I am happy I went with blue.

The question has been asked wrong.

It's all about which color is the fastest.

Obviously Hot Pepper Red, so it's really just a race for 2nd place.

I'm a big fan of color colors. Not the grayscale. I know a lot of you white, black, and magnetic peeps will vehemently disagree. But it stems from walking out into almost any parking lot and just seeing this sea of gray scale vehicles all looking almost the same, and just how boring that is to me. There's no fun, or happiness, or expression. Again, I understand you can make it fun and expressive. But with so many vehicles on the road with the same tone, you have to put some work into it.

My color preferences are therefore Saber, Blue, and Hot Pepper Red. And they all pretty much are equal in my mind. I could've chosen any other them when I purchased. I was originally leaning towards the blue, but on the day I decided to get a little adventurous and get the Saber. Don't regret it at all.

Same. My office parking lot is almost entirely grayscale and I love having something that stands out in the crowd.

Magnetic is the Stealthiest...and it's winning in the poll

I love my Saber Ranger, it is such a unique color.

I actually think they did a good job with all the colors, but partial to magnetic.

..and it's Lightning Blue for the lead

Did the same , blue or saber ? Thought saber was too dark on cloudy day . The hn compared it to the blue on a sunny day . Went with saber sure not sorry .

I really, really wanted Lightning Blue when I was in the market. Just couldn't make it happen - I very much like my Oxford White truck though. Never owned a white vehicle in my life - pleasantly surprised.

Why Saber of course! Believe it or not, I actually love how the Ranger looks in each color. Settling on a color was my hardest decision. Saber won my heart though.

Hi RG,

Oxford white dates back to the days of Orville and Wilbur launching their first Aeroplane.... A very popular color. Also one of the cheapest from a factory cost to paint a Ranger. Chrome Yellow was the most expensive. Cost per vehicle at the time was about $90 for Oxford white and Chrome Yellow was about $130... Bean counters wanted to drop Chrome Yellow, and I blew them off...Take rate did not support pure deletion...

Best,

I would not consider the Oxford White part of the grey scale of colors (technically it is) but the white pops out against the majority of other colors and I have no problem finding my truck in a parking lot - love the color and it doesn't show the daily dirt as most from the distances.
