Except yellow 😞 Just stock footage for CY. I was hoping for the same video treatment RC got.

Hi all! Not sure if anyone else was having this dilemma, but I couldn’t for the life of me decide whether to officially go with Limestone or CY (I’ve seen every other color in person except for these two). I was finally able to see both in person and I’m officially going with CY!!
Here are some side by side pics if anyone else is deciding between these two. Did my best to capture their true colors. No filters.

Great pics! I know CY is metallic, but how does it compare with Limestone or perhaps FG?

Yellow has got Some pearl effect going on. I drove a yellow one and would strongly consider it of the WAF was higher, and I was comfortable with having such a big vehicle in so conspicuous a colour. I’ve only seen limestone in sample form, it was only very very slightly metallic.

FG is exactly what it says on the can. A nice, dark, metallic forest green.

"WAF" took me a minute... 😆. And "Yellow has got some pearl effect going on" is exactly what I'm hoping for:like:

That’s my config (looks like black mountain interior). So at least they seem to be making them. No idea when I’ll get my 8 steps, but I’m happy to finally see some CY deliveries.

My 8 steps just opened for my Compass Yellow R1T!! Hopefully I'll be sharing a ton of pics very soon!

Edit: Also, my VIN is 40xx, so they've been holding onto it for a bit. Hopefully I don't experience too many known issues 😜

For once I can actually cheer for the person getting their VIN/8 steps as OverZealous has an earlier preorder date. Since there have not been any CY deliveries yet, I’ve been able to rationalize the later preorder holders getting their trucks. Now that CY deliveries are starting, I expect I’ll get my guide contact any day now*.

*No, I don’t believe that. I fully expect to get an email stating that all future CY deliveries are pushed to 2023.

So the new video description makes a bit concerned over CY. I was hoping for a more pronounced metallic, and not sure about the orange tone @Pixelshot mentions. I went from sold on it before to wondering if it's really more like Ford's Cyber Orange. 🤷‍♂️

We need someone with a cyber orange Ford or a legit yellow Mazda/corvette/s2000 to drive over there, park next to that truck, and post some pics…stat! 😁
