I have a Shadow Black on Code 99 waiting to see what MY23 has to offer. It was my original choice. Always wanted a black vehicle. Didn’t think I wanted Iconic Silver because I drove a silver VW the past 10 years - but, I love it now. At first I wanted a blacked out Black Diamond - but, I’m liking the contrast of the MIC details on silver.
I saw a black bronco in the wild and was disappointed. You just can’t really see the beautiful lines of the body. It looks like just a regular black truck. 2 other people said the same. It just doesn’t stand out.
I also had a black mustang that was always dirty looking - so hard to keep clean.
I have a Black on Black Diamond on order, but still in the Ford cloud.
I LOVE black. Last 3 vehicles I have purchased were black. No harder to keep clean than any other color. Dirty is dirty. But in my opinion black still looks better dirty than other colors look clean. But these things are a matter of personal tastes and visual opinion. Thank God we are not all alike. That would be quite boring!
