So glad I went the Iconic Silver route... Took delivery 2 weeks ago. Before and after 'silver shots' with a few mods...

You can't go wrong with Silver; I like the Blazer in the background! I had 2 over the years 1 when I was 17 and another when I was 47 both were silver.

Awesome. Could you give us the specs on your wheels and tires?

Congrats Jim! It does look incredible in the sunlight, great photos!

Thank you. It is a fantastic color in the sun. Contrasts well with the Orange accents. Here's a couple more. And a sunset picture. Thanks for bringing the Bronco back!

No

Looks amazing, congrats! Seeing the pics is making me that much more excited for mine to finally arrive, hopefully very soon. So far I’m still holding at 12/20 build week.

I chose iconic silver for hiding the dirt and scratches. We live on a dead end road and I rarely make it to the carwash. We have a billet silver ram and it takes the dirt and mud like a champ!

Although EG is my absolute favorite color Iconic Silver looks the best on every trim. Just wish it was available on the Heritage. I think I may like carbonized gray better in general, iconic is more timeless and looks better with the white. Ford please make this happen in 24 since my 23 order got cancelled. Christmas Wish

I like an old-school look, and this is the closest thing I could come up with. Normally, I like dark paint with chrome or stainless to provide a nice contrast. Silver provides a nice contrast with the black/gray body parts and I like that and the fake wheel ring matches the paint pretty closely and sets it off.

I am reluctantly considering the silver. I say reluctantly because I see silver vehicles EVERYWHERE! My wife's Honda is silver and it is attractive and it handles heat and dirt very well.
Here are my Pros/Cons for Silver
Pros:
It contrasts well with the other items on the vehicle like trail sights, fender flares, roof, etc.
It will look ok if not washed recently.
It doesn't retain as much heat from the sun as darker colors do (My black Volvo is a furnace).
Cons:
So many vehicles are Silver.
It is not special or eye catching.
Just my thoughts!

I felt the same way about it being too common. After buying mine, I rarely see another Iconic Silver Bronco.

Awesome photo, Craig. Thanks for sharing with the community!

Totally agree with Buzpro, silver is easy to keep looking clean. Perhaps the metallic flake helps. But then silver is also one of the worst to have to paint to match if any body damage repair needs to be done

Has anybody added a black Bronco emblem to the back of their Iconic Silver yet?
