It came down to black or magnetic, i went magnetic because it seams like less people bought that color in previous years. Plus it looks great with the greyish 20" wheels.

Great color choice. I have black right now and will be switching colors when I order a 2015. I am between magnetic or oxford white. Black shows every little scratch and swirl mark, and shows the dirt the most.

So you got the 502A package with sport appearance?

Do the mirrors and door handles come with body color paint instead of chrome?

When I build mine on the US ford website and pick the 502A package w/sport appearance the front and rear bumpers change to body colored paint, and the grill turns to black/grey but the mirrors and door handles remain chrome. Maybe just a problem with the website? My understanding is that everything should be painted body color and all chrome removed.

FX486 Good link you made me check my prices, once I added the MSRP difference and consider costco, freight, AC tax, registration etc looks like Planet ford is about 300 cheaper. I'm west of Kitchener, probably not worth it for me. I wonder what rebates they are applying, that is a good price

You said you ordered yours with the 301A package?

The one in the link is with the 302A package, which is a difference of about 3,000 dollars on the US website.

If you checked out planet ford with the 301A package like yours it should be more than 300 less

I have too many extra options tacked on. 301A was the only way I could get the grill, rims, etc that I liked. I'm picky but I did have a very hard time deciding between the picture below and the sport appearance package. I was worried about stones chipping the painted bumper, I do drive some gravel. Difference in price is slight, opinions are welcome!

For 2015, Magnetic is a near clone for the previous Sterling Grey and a few similar colors, but a paint coded as Magnetic has not existed in previous years. In my locale, Sterling Grey (and similar) F-150s outnumber Black by enormous margins.

In an elusive moment, I considered the XLT Sport as the only way to get the console mounted shifter and avoid paying xtra for a Lariat to avoid the column shifter. But, images from memory and exams of painted grills I've noted in the neighborhood and parking lots reminded me of how quickly a beautiful vehicle can be turned into an ugly, worn-looking vehicle with front end chipping, etc. I'll stick with chrome or some aftermarket offering.

Yes well I meant it as in the grey on current gen which is near identical, also in Alberta and Newfoundland the majority of fx4's are black which would be the sport of the new gen so i went magnetic instead. Plus like said before black is high maintenance.

Truck looks Great. I think you will be really happy with it when it comes in. I think bumpers painted or chrome come down to personal preference. Bumpers on my truck right now are painted and has a lot of chips already. If I went with painted bumper again I would get a 3m protective cover.

Also I don't think I realized on your original post that the total price all in with taxes etc was $46,450. I thought you meant it was $46,450 before taxes, so I was thinking it was way overpriced. My apologies

I've noticed that myself, I believe it's the website because it says what is painted in the description of the sport package, plus the handles would be the only chrome which would look terrible.
