Thanks Laura! Looks great.
Definitely a different shade of red. Not sure I can pull the trigger on it without seeing it on a Bronco in person.

Thanks for image of a two door in hot pepper red. It was used since 2019 on Rangers so the same plant got the color right after three years. The rapid red was a tri coat and more difficult to get right and more expensive since two clear coats more chances of errors, so Ford made the right move. Now how the color will be in different lighting , sun shade, garages ,etc can be seen with 2019 Rangers. Maybe some one has one. I only seen Rangers in Rapid Red Tricoat color at another dealer. Thank you and maybe you can get one of those jerry cans solely in Hot pepoer or Tobasco or Hot Cream of Tomato, yum yum good!

Hey @Laura
Would you happen to know if Ford has a Jerry Can painted with HPR? I thought I saw a picture this last weekend with the Jerry Can sitting in a row with the other red cans so you could see the difference in the shades. I was in a hurry so I didn't even notice who posted or where I was looking. Did BN happen to post this picture somewhere?

Thanks for posting these. Not in love with any of the MY22 colors, but I gotta pick one since I am pushed to MY22 and AMB is no longer an option.

I like the color but it just doesn’t look right to me on an SUV
SUV = more doors.
2door will be just right

I changed mine to hot pepper red Wednesday when submitted my 2022 order

From what I understand, Hot Pepper Red is also a tri coat. I saw a 2019 Ranger briefly when I was on vacation. Since it was parked in someone's driveway, I didn't get a close look. I'm headed to Indianapolis this weekend and a dealer down there has a 2019 Ranger so I'll be stopping by to take a look at it. I was originally going with HPR but after seeing it from a distance, it was just too orange for me. I was hoping for more of a copper color. Currently my order color is Eruption Green. I'll try to post some pictures if it actually ends up being on the lot.
