akirby Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Not sure I’d call that a heritage scheme, but it looks great especially on the race red and Avalanche. Looks like Avalanche and Area 51 are new colors for 2023. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pffan1990 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I had wondered for the last couple years if Ford was going to do a 75th anniversary edition of the F-Series like they did the 50th anniversary during the 1998 model year. I like the Heritage Edition as announced, especially the Race Red and Gray. However, I do think in addition to these choices, they should have offered white midsection with other colors for the top and bottom like the 1980s and 1990s. I like the white midsection with red top and bottom during the 1992-1996 era, especially with that headlights and grille style from that time. The Ford Media video, that rperez817 posted the link above, showed the white midsection with red top and bottom with the 1987 and 1995 trucks, with the 1995 being my favorite with front styling. https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/permalink.html?VideoId=6308459282112 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twintornados Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 How about Race Red top and bottom with Wimbledon White center?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I like that combo too as I mentioned it in previous post. I'm surprised Ford didn't think of offering this along with gray center as was also offered back then too. They could still offer other colors for top and bottom but use the white or gray as center. I do like the unique grille and the interior though.

pffan1990 Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I loved that truck with the 90s look that a dealership did a few years ago. They did a great job with it including the retro chrome 'deep dish' style wheels with white-lettered tires along with even the chrome rollbars with off-road light covers. I remember reading about it and really liking it. Here's an old article from Ford Authority about it. This was around the time I started thinking about the then-upcoming 75th anniversary of F-Series. So, yeah, Ford is doing a Heritage Edition with a two-tone paint layout, though it's a different kind of two-tone layout. But don't get me wrong though, I actually like the Heritage Edition and would definitely get one if I was ever in the market for a new vehicle. I would get a Race Red middle with Gray top and bottom with PowerBoost Hybrid, if offered. Though I'm not driving due to my low vision. https://fordauthority.com/2019/07/bfp-retro-f-150-has-classic-two-tone-looks/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
