Honestly, both trucks in person look great, especially with CF and Orange Interior.

Our shop truck is Lead Foot, CF, Orange Interior Accent package, etc. and I'm a huge fan it. If 2018 still had Avalanche instead of Lead Foot, I would have purchased it. If neither option was available, I'd get Magnetic. With both options available, I'd go for the newer truck unless the used truck has a decent savings on it.


Haha pretty much sums up all the answers on this thread.

And absolutely, the Carbon Fiber w/ Orange Interior looks incredible on both LF and AG. I actually wouldn't even be considering the AG or LF if it didn't have the Orange + CF. My first choice was actually black/black, but after seeing the orange with the AG/LF, I couldn't say no. I guess I can't go wrong with either one!

Ultimately, I think what'll do it for me is the price difference then. How much in total savings do you think would be a good deciding point? (note that the LF is selling at a slight markup)

I don't really see the point in a LF mark-up considering the color is now available on regular F-150s all the way down to XLT trim.

It'll really come down to your personal preference and what you want to spend when it's all said and done. I can't answer that for you. But I can say...these are a definitely the best kind of first world problems to have haha!

I picked up a new AG under MSRP a few weeks back ... not sure many left, I prefer the contrast of color to the fender flares / bumpers / applique ... LF and Metallic look good when clean but always look like a monochromatic paint scheme to me.

So it's statistically proven that avalanche is a better color

Just ask the forum member who also teaches college statistics!

Lol

It was almost 50/50 at one point yesterday, but looks like AG is the clear lead haha.

Honestly if both of these don't end up working out I'm for sure getting a blacked out Raptor.

So after doing some quick maths the difference in price is a little over 10k lol

I wonder if Ford plans to drop LF after 2018?

I really wish Ford would do a Green in the same primer flavor as they did with Terrain, AG & LF.
