I have a RR on order and am debating on if to change my color to VB and was wondering how difficult it is to keep clean.

Idk the answer to your question but I didn’t know this until I ordered. You have to decide before you get scheduled. From what I was told you can’t change your order anymore after that. So don’t take too long to decide!!! I changed mine twice.

I have the 2019 Majestic Blue Ranger, and soon a 2024 Velocity Blue Ranger (in production as of today) Keeping it clean is not an issue. It appears good to the eye regardless of if it's been washed today or washed a week ago.

My Velocity Blue Mach 1 was easy to keep clean and it looked great.

I have it on my Bronco and really don't have a problem keeping it clean. I ceramic coated it and it makes all the difference in the world. Washing is a breeze and bugs and grime come off easily. The best gift I gave myself and the bronco was a power washer. When my Raptor comes in I will be ceramic coating it as well. I ordered Shelter Green Metalic for the Ranger.

I know many on this forum don't like chrome, but it seems the chrome would look good with VBlue. I was also convinced by several friends that swear by chrome being easier to clean. No idea if that's true or not...

Maybe easier to clean but when its chipped you just can't put a little touch up paint on it.

Velocity Blue is not my favorite but I chose it become its the best that I liked.. I liked the Metalic Blue or Lightning Blue… i can’t remember the actual name but it’s pretty much the blue that Chevy is using now… I had the same Velocity Blue on my previous Ranger and had no issues with keeping it clean.

My order exactly. I'll let you all know how it holds up once I actually have the thing.

I think certain colors look better with Chrome and others with Sport. You can guess which I thought looks better with VB.
The 6G doesn't have a lot of chrome front surface area though. My 5G has a Chrome bumper, which doesn't show dirt too much. It's not really as easy to clean as the paint though. It tends to be a little hazy. The chrome-like PVD wheels, however, are easy to clean and still look good when I'm lazy and don't clean them.
