I blame Ford…

…for creating such an incredible lineup of color choices.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I think I’m at the point of changing the color of my Badlands almost daily. At this rate, I’ll get a VIN and get whatever color it is that day 😂

Started out Eruption Green, then Iconic Silver, currently Carbonized Gray. I’m tempted with Cactus Gray now…

Im fortunate that my dealer is a close friend who encourages me to get what I want because all he has to do is push a button

…that Eruption Green is sharp…🤔

She is a beaut. What was your first choice and why did you "settle" on EG?

I ordered a Velocity Blue Bronco and that's what I'll be getting, but I like Eruption Green. It was my second favorite color. They didn't offer it when I first ordered my Bronco and when they did, I considered changing my order but didn't. 😉

I'm Carb Gray here and I was about to switch to Azure Gray or Erupt' Green but I got a VIN before I could make the switch. So, kind'a like what you were saying. Spin the wheel and see where it lands. Honestly, you can't go wrong, all the colors look great. My Dad has a Ranger in Hot Pepper and it looks AMAZING, sooooooo.....

You can change the color after a VIN has been assigned. It's been done, in fact, a BN member had this done. What you can't do is change the color once the vehicle window sticker has been produced. Then it's locked in and will be produced as such.

Go with Eruption Green. You won't regret it. Pictures don't do it justice

I agree, this is mine the day we picked it up.

I love the eruption green and the velocity blue. I ended up going with area 51 for two reasons. it was the closest match (at the time) to the Brittany blue on my 71, and because I live on a gravel road anything that is a darker color shows the dust too much. the cactus grey would have been a good choice from the dust standpoint, but I just didn't care for it. so area 51 it is. or will be once it is delivered. 1-2 more weeks according to fords shipping estimate.

As of [today], I'm sticking with Carbonized Gray. I had a CG F-150 a few years ago and I absolutely loved that truck. I also had a Star White F-250 earlier this year and if Ford offered Star White on Bronco, then I'd get that in a heartbeat.

This exact thing happened to my Brother he was changing his color (he was on his 4 color change) he went into the dealer to change it from Carb Grey to Cactus Grey but they had already pulled his build and gave him a VIN. I must say the Carb Grey is a really nice color on the Bronco.

I got a 2021 badlands (Area 51 color) and had hoped for green but it wasn’t available in that model year. So, I’d vote for eruption green. It’s pretty sweet looking.

You can't reason someone out of a position that they didn't reason themselves into.

We have two white vehicles and a gray one as well. So happy that I added my Velocity Blue Badlands to the stable. It looks great and stands out in the crowd.

Many times at stop lights we have fun counting the gray and white vehicles around us. It is amazing how many are out there in the gray scale.

Pick the one that makes you get excited when you see it. The good news is that the Bronco looks great in all the colors! Hard to go wrong.

I didn't have the choice of color for my Bronco as it had everything I was about to order except the color Race Red--have come to love it and it does very well in Wildtrak trim.

If you like Velocity Blue on a Bronco...meet Big Blue, 2021 F350. This girl I ordered.

Eruption Green reminds me so much of a '67 Mustang I bought back in '77. The paint was in bad shape due to some lousy body work someone did on her so I had it painted a dark, midnight blue. Darker than Velocity Blue, which my Bronco will be.

It reminds me of this green:

This is not my car, but I had a 7-up mustang just like it. I loved that car. My favorite mustang I ever owned. Mine was named Katrina. My wife has already named the EG Bronco on the way to us Katrina II.

7-Up Mustang?
Never had it Never will...LOL thats what we used to call my cousin's 87 mustang LX 4 cyl. that had all the body work of a Saleen. looked fast but the extra weight of the wing and stuff actually slowed it down.
