I've heard a rumor that the MY26 has less orange/ red coloring for the interior?

True?

Some part in particular you’re curious about? My 26 had plenty lol. I’d happily send a photo of a specific part if you need.
I was just curious. I read that on Reddit, where a guy didn't want to buy a MY25, because he was told the MY26 had less color inside.

That was just a rumor. It didn’t pan out. Same amount of orange for 26.

Yea it was all due to a bunch of bogus marketing pics Ford put out that lead to a lot of confusion.
They are in fact the same interiors as 24, and 25 models.

These were some of the interior pics that created that confusion.

Those pics were ford marketing pics featured in dealer adds all over net.
No one seems to know why Ford put these bogus pics out. I was pretty excited about the red accents being gone as well. But turns out it was all just BS. We still have the same red accents for 2026.

I hate Avalanche gray, never thought a color that looks like the factory forgot to paint it and left it in primer was a good color.
I used to paint vehicles on the side in the mid-eighties. Yes, I'm old. A gallon of auto paint was $28.00 per gallon.

I recall a college buddy wanting to see how paint was applied, joined me for a paint application. the vehicle was already primed in grey, not red lead. I had to wet sand the primer, let it dry then apply the initial base coat. While wet sanding the grey primer, I made a joke and said, "I should just let it dry and spray clear on it... shinny primer." He laughed and said, "Who would want that?" I remember saying, "I would never have a customer if I offered shinny primer paint jobs!" Little did I know how wrong I was just 40 years ago!
