Lithium Grey...Where's the love?
I traded in my 05 F150 on this 2016 a couple months ago. I looked at Lariats cause I wanted bucket seats and console but cringed at the 62K price. I found this 302a equip. XLT Sport with nav and roof for 10K less. My only regret or concern is I wished now I got the 5.0 instead of the 3.5. So far with 2K miles I'm only getting around city/Hwy 17. Anyway the point of my post is when I found this truck on the lot it was pretty dirty and was really hard to tell exactly what it looked liked all cleaned up but I thought it looked ok...After making the deal and coming back later to sign the paper work the salesman brought the truck around all cleaned up and I thought....O My God! I don't know...looked soooo much different. Different it definitely is! I brought it home and started detailing it further cause they really didn't do well enough to suit me...One by one the neighbors started coming over and commenting on how much they loved that different color....Really? OK.....I spent the next couple days applying Zano Polish and buffing....It is a weird color and light effects it dramatically...Bright sun light it is a bit funky but at night and low light it looks almost charcoal to black.. As you can see it can be and is quite reflective...I like it more and more every day.....Regardless it's an awesome truck. Gonna get the first oil change next week and switching to full synthetic before taking it out on a 1500 Mile road trip...looking forward to that! So please give the Lithium Greys a little more respect......hey it matches my house!

I seriously considered a Lithium XLT, but went with Magnetic instead. I like the metallic color & it was the only XLT Sport in Mag/Lith that I could find locally with NAV.
