Not a fan of any of the 3 added colors, space white looks like a gloss primer.

Ruby Red is an absolutely beautiful color. It's a deep metallic red and it shouldn't be hard to find an F-150 in that color on a new or used dealer lot.

Go to a Ford dealer lot and look for any vehicle with the color. That will give best view of true color. That is how I chose cactus gray.

Ruby Red looks nice based on this: https://www.facebook.com/HammersDet...nted-clear-coat-check-it-out/186938463620845/

I was all set to get a Hot Pepper Red MY25 Maverick, and I just saw that the HPR has been discontinued. (heavy sigh).

After being duped 3 years ago by being told school bus yellow is Cyber Orange (and the picture LOOKED orange!), I'm wondering: will Eruption Green and Ruby Red really be the colors they look to be online? I like both based on these pictures, but I'm not sure I can trust Ford when neither Cyber Orange nor Hot Pepper Red were in person what they appeared to be online when I placed my order back in '21.

What do y'all think? Will Ford's photographer or website guys get the coloring right this time?

Wait until they hit the showroom. Then you’ll know for sure.

space white is white, like cactus grey is grey. My CG can look grey, green or blue.

I;m still pissed we can't get Cyber Orange. I'd get a '25 if it was still available.

So glad they brought back Velocity Blue. My '22 was VB (sold) and I loved it. I drive a '23 Cactus Gray now which is also nice, but I miss the blue. It will look even better now that they have grabber blue interior accents instead of orange. Just wish they didn't change the front end.

I will say that a coworker's Eruption Green Bronco Sport doesn't tend to have as prominent yellow specular highlights as the beauty shots show, but that could just be a lack of a good wax job.

I agree with this. Seen multiple broncos in eruption green and it is not as a bold color in person

I bet a tremendous about of people ordered off the online color pallet. I know I did (area 51). Spotting a Maverick was a rare site.

I think the eruption green looks better in person then pictures online!!!

Here’s my ruby red Mustang. Not the best photo, but it’s stunning when it’s clean!

If you looked at 100 different computer monitors, you’d see 100 different variations of Ford’s colors, some closer to the actual paint color than others. But most would fall way short.

My guess is that Ford’s photographers work on calibrated monitors, so if you’re looking at the photos on a calibrated monitor, you have a better chance of seeing what the actual colors look like. But if you’re not, then the only way to see what the colors actually look like is to see the truck in the real world. Your monitor’s best guess won't be good enough.

I do like the addition of Eruption Green. That's my mom and I's all-time favorite color on the Bronco/Bronco Sport. I'm sure it'll look great on the Maverick, although it's at the cost of the ugly face. I am bummed about Hot Pepper Red and Cactus Grey being discontinued. Those were great standout colors that sold well. My mom always enjoyed Cactus and I always enjoyed HPR which is why I finally ordered one. Nothing beats the orange red hue when the sun sits it. The Ruby Red is nice but it's a more authentic red which is boring, at least in my opinion. And since the Bronco Sport is built in the same factory and shares the same color palette, you can bet they'll be discontinued on that as well. But they'll also get the same replacements.
