Avalanche or Oxford White on Lariat BAP? -- thoughts?

[Jim_in_Pa]

There is a 83% chance that Avalanche will look dated to most of us in 3 years. There is probably zero chance that will happen with white. None of that may matter to som e buyers, but if it would at least be one factor I'd consider.

Good point for sure and most likely the truth! Sure glad I placed my order a couple hours back and chose Avalanche..

Sorry about that...but the other side of the coin is that things like color and trends and such are mostly in the heads of only a few of us. I was behind one in Avalanche on the way into work and do like the color. I have just found that I tire of a color if it's outside the traditional white/dark blue/black/red/silver group.

im Oxford white and the BAP really pops!

Wow!! Very nice looking truck, I like that very much and I'm jealous, you guys have all the fancy rides and I just keep ordering vehicles that never arrive..so I guess i keep driving my 16' XLT, (95,000 miles and counting) until something shows up.. lol

I have to apologize and take back 95% of what I said in this thread. I was confusing Area 51 Blue with Avalanche Grey.

I am changing my vote to Avalance...after the polls have closed.

I was torn between white and avalanche as well. Wanted the storm trooper look. Wife said "White looks too much like a commercial work truck"....I dont think she is a Star Wars fan either...the the storm trooper reference wouldnt do much to sway her decision.

In the end I went with the Avalanche with the BAP. I don't regret it one bit. In bright day like it does have a more white'ish\subdued grey look, but I love going out to the parking lot after work just around dusk and the grey\blue really pops.

Everyone has an opinion, but I dont think you can go wrong either way.

Awesome looking ride!! That's hilarious, my daughter said basically the exact same thing last weekend, "Dad that looks like a utility truck"...I laughed and reminded her, that she won't be the one driving it, lol! I really like both colors about the same, but had to choose just one. I went up to a Lariat mainly because of the projector headlights but anymore the loaded up XLT is priced close to it also. The headlights are getting more important every year as I climb the age ladder..

I forgive you this time but don't change your mind or my type 'A" personality will start second guessing myself again! lol

I upgraded to the Lariat because I HAD to have the full digital dash.

I just want to say that I hardly see any white loaded F150s around where I live. Yes you do see the white commercial trucks but you can tell they are usually xl’s. I am truly happy I went with white on my 2022. They didn’t have avalanche when I ordered and I thought that I should have gotten that but when I saw my truck there was no regrets. Love it! More pics for ya!

What a beautiful vehicle, totally bad ass!! Your pics are crystal clear and excellent, what did you take them with? I have always liked oxford white, wasn't crazy about the pearl whites Ford used to have on their Explorers..

2023 F-150 Lariat Avalanche 502A | 3.5L Powerboost Full Hybrid | Black App Package | Sport App Package | 7.2KW | B&O Unleashed

That is very close to my ideal build, at least for 2023 (if I was ordering now)..

Enjoy!
