I logged into the back door page and just saw I have a Feb 7 production date! So of course now Im starting to questions my choice of cactus grey. Really, none of the colors do it for me, but Im wondering if I should change before a VIN is assigned. Any idea how much time I have left before a VIN is assigned? HAs anyone regretted their color choice? What about Cactus Grey? Thanks!
i was in the same boat. Now that I have mine, I have really come to appreciate how the Cactus changes in different conditions. Sometimes it is indistinguishable from Area 51, sometimes greenish, sometimes it looks white and sometimes it looks pale gray.

if you have a production date, you have a VIN and therefore not changeable anyway….

I’m kinda tempted to switch from Oxford white to Eruption green. I’ve owned three vehicles in my life and they were all white. It’s my favorite color but the eruption green is such a nice color. In my family our vehicles have always been white. My dad insists that it be that way. He did have a 1965 Jaguar e-type once which was British racing green. The eruption green definitely reminds me of that.

My first and only choice was the Cyber Orange, but if I would have been force to a 2022, I might have gotten the green. But whatever the color you can't go wrong.

Personally I love cactus gray. With my family went with Eruption Green which I have reservations about because there’s gonna be 4 million of them on the road.
My thinking was the opposite, CG and A51 are everywhere. When I look at trucks in the world there aren't that many actual green ones. But hey, what do I know, I've only owned black or silver cars save for my Ducati.

Edit: Obviously choose the color which makes you happy!

I just switched to Cactus Gray from Cyber Orange. I am always bouncing back and forth, so I totally get it. It is hard to judge the colors on other vehicles since the Bronco has a ton of accent trims that break up the color.

This picture reassures me that I made the correct choice. I don't even mind the silver beauty rings on this color.

This photo is reassuring to me since I switched to soft top in order to get a vin sooner. Looks so good in the full recline position in this photo.

I started out Rapid Red, changed to AMB, changed to Area 51, and now I’m on Race Red…..mostly for personal reasons…….and I currently own a Cactus Gray BB 4dr that I plan on trading in when my 2dr Race Red WT shows up in a couple months. I have to say I never considered CG, but it gets lots of love from strangers and it never looks dirty. It’s a great color, especially on an off road vehicle.

There were none on the lots to look at so I went black, figured you can't go wrong with that. About 8 seconds after I got the build email I panicked I made the wrong choice haha. In the end no color is the wrong color, we got Broncos! (Eventually)

I was an Area51 original order but it wore on me quick so I went with Iconic Silver in the end. If Eruption Green was available when we ordered my wife would of forced me to get that.

I don't think any 1 color is wrong or right but I do think many of these colors are hard to have complimentary accent colors if that's your jam.
