Got my vote changed... you’ll probably be buying a wrap... so you should likely get white as the base for the leopard print.
One of the things that really struck me with the Oxford White today, it has a subtle blue to it. I don't know if it was reflecting the sky or what, but it had a subtle blue tint. I really liked it. But I love cactus grey, so I had to vote for that...

That said, I saw Race Red today and it looks great, too. Part of my concern, though, is I'm going to get pin striping from the various desert plants I'll encounter and I think cactus grey will be easier to blend when I want to clean up for Sunday brunch or something.

Anyway, the three colors that I felt don't translate well to photos were CG, Oxford White, and AMB. I had met a friend there and we decided AMB looks like black with speckles. I mean, don't get me wrong, it looks great, but it's really freaking dark.

Back to the decision at hand, I think ultimately, it's going to come down to you. Race red is kind of flashy. CG is more subdued. Who do you want to be? You can't go wrong either way because in the end, you'll look marvelous (to paraphrase Fernando).

VB isn’t an option.

Only Cactus Gray, Race Red, and Funky Leopard Print Wrap.
I feel like I now need to make myself more clear....lol. I don't like any of the colors on the same level as these 2. These 2 colors, 🌵 grey and race red are equally awesome to me now. Opinions on these 2 colors lol

Well I won't be much help because I knew I was getting A51. Then I knew it was gonna be white. I ended up placing my order for CG after seeing it in person 4 times on Sports and Rangers. It's tough personal decision. I have a 2019 F150 in Abyss Grey and would pick that color without hesitation if it was a choice. Either color and you will still be driving an awesome vehicle so you really can't go wrong.
CG here also!! When clean nothing beats it!! (IMO)

Seriously, you have to look at Ford colors in person, in shade and sunlight.

Race Red is... tangerine in person. Under bright sunlight it can look more orange than red. I named it "ticket me twice" red because it is that vibrant.

Cactus is a cement gray, except when it is a hideous mint green.

Never order a Ford color without looking at it in person.

Based on the picture above, I can't even tell what color it is. Could be Cactus, could be Landscape Truck (Oxford) White.

What trim are you getting? I feel like the colors of the grill, top, etc can make or break a color.

Race red looks great on a wild track, but not as much on a badlands because of the gray grill (which can be painted).

I voted cactus because.it seems to go good with everything.

Gray isn't even a color. What are you, some kind of neutral?

I’m happy to see I’m not alone. For the longest time I was carbonized grey. Then I saw my first bronco in person a year ago at a car show and fell in love with cactus grey and chose that when I reordered MY22. I started buying things like a custom ford symbol to match the badlands accent color because the look on top of cg appeals to me. However if I hadn’t done that I would have changed to race red. But now I’ve been looking at that funky orange and that has me interested. Basically I want all the colors.
