Oxford White or Agate Black???

[cookiehumper]

Ok people, I’m ordering my first Raptor this week. I’ve always been a black vehicle person, but I’m considering a white Raptor. Please vote Oxford White or Agete Black with a reason I should choose your color.
Thanks in advance

I'd go black (you know what they say...)

I was torn on the same choice, went black and now they don't want me back.

I think an all black build looks more menacing but the white (with rear applique delete) is classier and easier to maintain.

Can't go wrong either way. I'd say it depends on what you plan to do with it. Heavy offroad use go white. Also depends what mods you plan; paint to match, wheels, bumpers ect.
What are your plans for this thing?

Black, unless your trying to go stealth.

Black is my choice. Gives it a more premium look IMO.

I'm going to throw out a vote for white. Here's my reasoning:

I currently drive a black F150. It's simply impossible to keep clean. I'd hand wash, detail it... Get it looking slick. Take it out to run some errands for a couple hours, by the time I'm back it's dirty again.

I also love the contrast you can get with the Raptor. With the non-black/gray colors, the grill, fenders, wheels, and applique stand out. Whereas with black, it's a very muted vehicle. I can spot a white Raptor a half mile away, whereas with black I have to almost be on top of it before I realize it's a Raptor.

That being said, I was set to get a white Raptor when I hit the dealership to submit my order. But fortune would have it that they had two white Raptors sitting on the lot, and.... Well, white just wasn't doing it for me. So I called an audible and ordered Performance Blue.

But it's a Raptor, so hard to go wrong regardless of color choice.

Funny. I got LB and tried to change my mind to the white one on the lot but it sold that day. White Raptors look great.

I have bought numerous vehicles and they have always been white or black. For the vehicles that I know I am going to be very picky about the appearance (my Raptor and Corvette), I go with white because it hides all paint imperfections (swirls, scratches, etc...) extremely well; everyting else is black. If you get a white Raptor and add black accents (tinted windows, tonneau cover, door moldings, etc...), your truck will look sharp.

Ok guys thanks for the responses. I got to the dealer yesterday and asked them if they had a Magnetic Grey car on the lot. They actually had a 2018 Raptor in Magnetic. I like the fact that it has metal flake in the paint. So I called an audible and when Magnetic Gray! Truck should be in my hands in 8-10 weeks I’m told. Thanks again

Great choice. My wife has a magnetic Explorer and loves it.

If they had a 2018 Raptor in magnetic, why do you have to wait 8-10 weeks? That's an order type or timeline, and they're not building 2018s anymore (or at least, this is the last week of 2018 production).

I wanted a 2019. The 2018 had every option I wanted but it was only $700 cheaper because they had the hood and exterior graphics package on it. I didn’t want that. I got the 2019 for MSRP and they gave me full trade in value on my 2013 Jeep

Good for you! Nice color choice.

I don't think there is a wrong color, I bought a used white one and my son ordered a new Leadfoot gray. Magnetic is very nice almost bought one in that color.
