was going to get a lithium gray about two years ago, because i found a good deal and it had all the options i wanted. Was at work, having a discussion about it, showed him a picture. He said "if it ever gets the paint scratched we can just take one of the garbage cans in for an exact match"

good point, i never looked at lithium gray as an option again. This color reminds me of that.

I really wanted the Lead Foot Gray after being in the Navy for 20 years. You can see the resemblance in this pic. USS Raven and USS Cardinal, Minehunters headed to the Middle East for a homeport shift and year tour for me. I was actually on the ship when this was taken. The Heavy Lift ship is the Blue Marlin which after dropping us off brought the USS Cole back after the terrorist attack. RIP to those 17 Sailors.

i ended up with magnetic which looks great unless it’s raining. Only the ignot silver looks good sometimes to me in the rain.

True statement! I guess you could say my magnetic is trash can color with 6 layers of sparkle and Shilac thrown in.

Magnetic, wise choice...... Ok i'm biased as my truck is magnetic.
Magentic knocks it out of the park after a fresh wash 'n wax especially in bright sun light.
But like a black color, it needs constant cleaning after driving in rain, snow or gravel roads.
In addition to ingont silver, i'd say a white color also holds up well.

I use the Cali duster when there's a very light film of dust on the truck, saves a lot of washing time.
But the Cali duster don't help the bug splatters on the windshield and front grill.

I am hoping the 2020’s will be a deep discount next year with the new 2021 F-150 coming out. Last redesign my buddy traded a 2013 in for a 14 at no cost due to the huge demand for Canadian trucks on the USA and the dealers desire to clear out the older body style.
