Right, that's why I put trail armor in "", all I want is to cover the weld, rocker for chip protection and door sill. I may go with factory rails and I am aware of their limitations also...
For my use case in Florida, I'm going to opt for the rocker panel trail armor. I don't need to haul extra weight of metal rails while cruising the beach. I was getting the BB, but have moved up to OBX for the high package. I'll toss the grandpa steps and clean up/hide the pinch welds.

Damn, I'm only 45 miles away and didn't know this was happening. Are they still going to be there tomorrow?

i think y'all are right.. that it wasn't race red.. my bad... but to be fair, based on the pics of rapid red on line, i really didn't think this looked at all like that.. thats said, both trucks exceeded my expectations, and as a day 1 reservation maker, ordering a BD with minimal options, I am hoping I get my truck the summer! I think we are all going to be happy. going to take my daughter wheelin before she goes back to college if it gets here in time.

Well, we now have the first person (possibly ever) to say that Race Red was subdued and not an in-your-face bright color.

How do we get this on the timeline?????
Yes Race Red as subdued is perhaps the most surprising of comments I've seen from reviews. One of the other comments says it was really Rapid Red.

Either way come on Ford get red right on this vehicle, shouldn't be that difficult. (Match the standard base model JL red and I'd be thrilled.)

I was there too and it was definitely rapid red, it's a nice color. Was disappointed with the models they decided to bring, no 2dr or squatch. The cactus sport 1st edition in the pad had me move cactus up to my top color choice. Overall though the bronco looks much better in person than in pictures

I think we would have appreciated the colors more if we were able to see them in full sun.

3) race red is about the lamest red ( at least on the preproduction vehicle) I have ever seen . pink hue, soft subdued doesnt pop.
