    Still trying to figure out if I like the raptor in Avalanche or not. The color looks different in almost every picture.

    Is the raptor Avalanche different than the Avalanche gray on the GT350?

    I think they are the same.

    Same color - it's just difficult to photograph under artificial light. This is the best shot I've found, since it shows the difference to a white truck under diffuse outdoor lighting...

    I asked @ADD about the color on the race truck and they just said it was completely wrapped but wouldn't confirm if the base color was actually Avalanche or not.

    I think I like the Avalanche gray and for that reason that it looks different in all kinds of light

    I'm in the same boat OP. I can't decide what color to order. I think Avalanche Gray, but it looks too light in some pic's for my tastes. The new blue and darker gray look pretty awesome. I'd love to see all 3 in real life.

    Wish the avalanche grey was the Stealth Grey of the Focus RS.

    Personally, I think light grey is on the downslope of trendiness. Five years from now, people are going to say, "I see you bought your truck in 2016". Could be wrong, but I tend to keep vehicles for ten plus years anyway, so I try to stick to the classics - white, black, silver, hot pink with orange flower prints, etc.

    i personally like the grey. i love the black, but i told myself my gen1 would be the last black vehicle i'd purchase. though i likely won't be in a gen2 for a few years, if at all.

    I saw it at the Philadelphia car show. Did not like it. It just did not pop out to me at the show. kinda blended in with the other trucks until I got in close. For that reason I ordered white with hood and bed graphics. I want everyone to know it's a raptor from mile away. :)

    I like the color well enough, just think it could use a little pop. I ordered with no graphx and will work with Rappygraphics at some point to come up with something subtle.

    They are the same color. I have both a 2017 Raptor and GT 350R in Avalanche Grey

    I get more comments on this color than anything I've owned.
