I have had a Raptor for 2 days now and am very happy with everything about it. The Raptor was at the delaership for 2+ weeks, parked out front. I would drive by 4 times per week going to and fro from my volunteer job. Everytime I'd marvel that it was still at the dealership. Long story short, I finally stopped in and found that they were asking MSRP. While it is not a color that I would have ordered, there was no wait on the factory.

Pictures here.

Truly with the graphics package the white looks good. I have Velociry Blur but had to go aftermarket for the graphics. Mine did come with them.

The graphics look great. I need to start looking at after-market accessories. Just need an hour or so to start.

Never hesitated for a moment that my RR wouldn’t be white. Come on, with all that black trim against the white, please. We have very similar trucks. Mine came with mud-flaps, which I actually do like, and I put 1.2 inch spacers on all 4 corners and the truck’s stance is dramatically improved. I’ve had mine now for a little over two weeks and 800 miles and I have still managed not to put my foot into it. Promise myself I would wait until 1000 miles before I really hammered the pedal. Enjoy!! They are amazing trucks for the price.

I think white is a color anyone can grow to love so I don't think you mistake with it. Also the graphics (while I'm not a fan normally) accents the white really well.

Oh yeah, love the R button. Took me 3-4 days to figure out how to open the rear window though. Eventually look here to get the dang thing open.

White is nice when it's combined with a different color and it's not as controversial as some colors under any circumstances..

The color is growing on me everyday and I haven't really put me foot into it yet. My goal is to change oil at 1000 miles and then start pushing it more. I wish mine had come with the mudflaps, might have to order them this week. Two inch spacers, do then change the steering at all?
