Lots of opinions as to whether the color changes are good or bad. Some folks are happy about the new colors while others are disappointed that their favorite color is no longer. How about a poll? I only listed the dropped and added colors since the intent is to see if the MY21 or MY22 choices are better.

I think since most reservations had to be moved to MY22, @Ford Motor Company should have kept the same colors from MY21 since only a small fraction are getting produced due to MIC issues. I think Rapid Red was highlighted well especially with the modular hardtop that also won’t be available until MY23…

It’s kind of like highlighting the Bronco with the white vinyl with red stitching that has yet to be seen.

I'm not happy I'm losing Rapid Red, there were only two good colors for the Base, and the wife's truck is already Velocity Blue.

The Green is too dark, though probably great in a northern climate.
Hot Pepper will probably be trim level locked.

At least we get the opportunity to pay even more and get Cyber Orange.

The problem with that is that the decision to add these colors was made months ago. Long, long before the decision on the MIC tops.

It’s certainly good that Ford would add color options for the 22 model year, but I really don’t understand the thought process behind eliminating color options for vehicles which they’ve already collected deposit money!
I understand the delays and appreciate their attempt to get issues such as the MIC roofs resolved, but the arrogance of eliminating options I paid a deposit for really irks me!

Looks like they should at least bring back Rapid Red!! No one likes Hot Pepper to replace it c'mon FORD! now I'm looking at wrapping my brand new vehicle next year. Bring on the green, but don't take away the best Red!

I wanted a nice green at the beginning but finally settled on amb. Eruption green is probably the best compromise I’ll have in my life

Maybe someone with deep pockets and an AMB order will require "specific performance" and compel Ford to produce the vehicles ordered?...

We knew Lightning Blue was a First Edition exclusive since the beginning.

But I am surprised they didn’t replace Lightning Blue and AMB with Atlas Blue. Perhaps they felt Atlas Blue was too similar to Velocity Blue?? Dunno.

I was thinking the same thing. You could argue they didn't discontinue Lightning Blue. Instead, they stopped making the only model it was available on, an MY21 exclusive model.

I was in Rapid Red Mod top camp. I will need to rethink that now. I have a feeling that EG will be widely chosen. I'm not a fan of the coloring on the MIC top, and IMO it does not go well with EG. Have to wait and see what a black top looks like.

Ford should have a selection of basic colors, and then through in some of the funky ones. To pull red from the base is unfortunate.

It has something to do with MAP having 13?something paint guns and every year having exclusive colors. Their data probably showed that Red and Blue were the least ordered and they swapped them out.
