I am not saying it isn't a beautiful color at all, in fact the opposite. It's just a lot of people just have hopes that it is lighter than it really is. I had a Kodiak Brown and my uncle has Magma Red, they are super dark even in sunlight, just the way they are. They won't be light in person.

I should have worded it better I was agreeing with you and just posted pics in case some here haven't seen how dark it is for the most part. It is an awesome blue you just don't see much of it. Seeing it on a flat plane doesn't work with it. The surface needs to have some curve to it to reveal the blue. To coin a phase, it's all in one's perspective. It is not for everyone. Personally I love black vehicles, own two Fords currently which are black, which is what AMB is to me .... black with a blue hue to it. not a dark blue. That's just how I look at it, others might not see it that way, once again perspective.

Recce Mission Accomplished. (That means "recon" for you infantry folks)

Buy that drone pilot a cigar and adult beverage at the squadron hooch bar! Did he transmit a BDA report on the egress? :cool::D
BDA: Splashed two Wranglers. Took a shot a Grand Wagoneer, but it was too damn big to sink.

I wish there was time for ford to fix the antimatter. Make it just a bit more bright blue. Like how it looks in the f150 reveal. Almost like candy

Your candy are those sweet blue lights on either side of the truck. Would be tough trying to find a way to drags those everywhere with you ?

Closeup of the mystery tan - beige - brown- olive green color, or a very brown primer?

As well as an unidentified gray color next to it, though this could be Carbonized Gray yet to have clear coat applied.

I wonder if anything is hiding under the covered spots?

Are there three shade of a medium blue here?

The one on the left looks like Blue Flame to me, but that color hasn't been used in 5 years or so:

But in reality, given how much Velocity Blue seems to shift under different lighting conditions, it seems most probable to me that all three of these are same color. You're just seeing them at different distances from the camera, under different levels of shadow from the adjacent building, under a variably cloudy sky...

Seems surprising they did another color that reacts like Magma Red. Ford dropped that because of low sales. Same will probably happen again.

Atlas blue would make sense, it is on the Sport and Explorer. I like it and would probably go with that over Area 51.
