After a month of research, I finally found a dealership in Arizona that doesn't charge markups, and I was able to order a 26 RR in Avalanche Gray! I probably won't see it until May though, lol 🤞🏻

It definitely has character! I wonder how it will look with the bead lock wheels 😮💨👌🏻

Someone will accuse Ford of offering “yet another gray” color. There’s a little truth in that, but AG has a really cool shimmer in person, with faint green undertones. Put AG next to Oxford White and it really pops.

The real problem with Ford isn’t all the grays — it’s the fact that the don’t offer the RR in any red or orange. Why they discontinued Code Orange I’ll never understand.

I found a dealer in CA that would do MSRP and put a non allocated order in about a week ago and I just got the same email from ford yesterday. I also went with Avalanche Grey.

For the price it would be dumb to go with a high option Lariat. A specced out Lariat would’ve been $57k for me.

An XLT to my spec would’ve been $48k.

I had a TRX and really didn’t want a full size truck again.

You definitely got lucky. I secured the MSRP at $61,380, which included the bead lock wheels and the spray-in bedliner. Unfortunately, many dealerships in the Phoenix area are trying to add $5,000-$10,000 markups. That's quite a bit! Congratulations on your order! 🫡

Phoenix has the worst car dealers of any big city that I’m familiar with. Total Clown World. Many now have a $995 doc fee. And most throw on “Desert Protection Packages” that amount to basic tint and door edge guards for $1,500.

Pro tip: Don’t do business with people who hate you.

Having owed mine for 6 months now. I can't imagine a scenario where he won't love it.
Agreed. Ive liked my 2024 enough that im buying a 2026. Sticking with a ranger raptor. One of my favorite vehicles that I've owned. Fun, yet still practical and useful for the most part. Great bang for the buck, especially compared to the other raptor models or comparable vehicles from the other manufacturers.

I was all set to order a 26 in that color until they showed me an F150 in that color. Did not like it at all. Make sure you've seen a truck in real life in that color before you take delivery.
