Overall nice truck and Ford as usual will struggle to meet demand. The one thing I don't like is the optional side step behind the rear tire will collect rocks and dirt. Also not sure why a mid size requires a step.

$40k+ for a no other options selected, 4WD XLT trim level crew, that amounts to 1/2 to 2/3's of a truck that can hold a few bags of garden mulch ROFLMAO. As far as that step you just might want it when you realize the bed rails / top of tailgate appear to be chest high.
I think I'd just go with the F150 for an additional $7K.

What a great color in link #1. It's about time.
In this current world of wet-cement gray, baby diaper tan, crayola blah blue, and the (yawning) white, grey, and silver selections (another yawn), this color offering is a welcome relief. Nice goin' Ford!

No one has ever answered this question. What are those muted solid colors called??? I call them "GAWDAWFUL"
My wife is an artist and says they take a basic color and add white to get that look.

I agree. We are plagued with, in my opinion, the worst selection of colors in decades. And don't even get me started on black wheels .... really?

But then again I like the “gawd awful new colors” too. Almost bought a pickup last year was a desert sand/OD color. Sweet lookin truck.
Too bad that the destroyer gray is/was such a limited color. It and the dessert sand looking beiges are nice additions to the more standard colors.
