First 3 days with my Forged Blue RHO. Limited to RHO.

Looks good! I've had a forged blue on order and can't wait to see it in person. I got it with the beadlock wheels but lately I've been wishing I just stuck with the black ones

I almost got the beadlocks but my 2020 limited was night edition and I really like that look. The beadlocks do look good.
 
Anyone familiar with the color Maximum Steel metallic? If so, how does it compare to FBM? My limited is MSM and the pics I see online of FBM look very similar....
FBM is less blue, more grey and darker.

My wife’s Tesla model Y is stealth grey and it’s almost the same color even though Tesla calls theirs grey and ram calls this blue.

Hmm... I'd say it's absolutely blue. Maybe a little grey mixed in but it's blue. In shadows it may sometimes look darker like dark grey or almost black or have a hint of another color, but that's due to poor lighting. I look at this truck more than any other truck I've owned. It's a gorgeous color.

In certain lighting it definitely is more blue but most times it looks more grey too me 🤷‍♂️
 
@Dan G Do you own it or just seen pics? This color doesn't photograph well IMO. I've never looked at it once and thought it looked grey. I'm just like damn that's a fine ass blue. Maybe one of us has some color issues and doesn't know it.. haha.

Haaa!! That is why I posted a pic of my '20 Limited a few posts back. Even that pic s deceiving..Under florescent lights the blue really comes out...FBM looks very similar to the Maximum steel on my current truck. Regardless, I put the order together yesterday....Now the wait begins!
 
I was getting my 2019 Laramie serviced today and they told me they just received their first RHO. I took a video of them moving it (see attached that I had to cut down to make it fit). After they moved it I took a gozillion pictures and stared at it for a long time. I'm having second thoughts about the FBM color. At one point it looked like four different colors from front to back. As I walked around it the color seemed to change. At one point it looked like a Frankentruck with a bluish green cab and a black bed.

When I checked the VIN it said the color is river rock.

I agree. If anyone wants to see it in person and can't find an RHO, look for a River Rock Wagoneer. My wife has one - same color. We both really like it. If not for wanting the red interior accents, I would have gone with Frost Blue - I don't think they will go well with that.
 
Finally got to see FBM on a new 1500 Rebel yesterday. Was really surprised how much green is in the color. Was able to park my Maximum steel Limited next to it to see the difference. Not a game changer for me, but I wish it was a bit more blue!

That's odd, to me it's never looked green.... it looks blue with a hint of grey in it.🤷‍♂️

Yup.

It looks kinda-green in many of the older pictures posted here...

But to me in person, it is more of a blueish, gunmetal color.

I've had both ends of the like/dislike spectrum from people.

Some love it, some don't like it at all.

I owned it for a day and then the engine hydro locked and I had to reorder. Depending on the lighting it definitely looked blue but also black and also grey lol
 
Green, Blue, hint of Gray I see it all wtf color is it supposed to be? 😂
 
Totally agree..Same truck, without mine next to it....Totally looks blue!

Parked next to my lightning it looks almost black/dark blue. Wish jt would always look like this shade! Still love it though

It's beautiful man! I have a black RHO on order and I was second guessing that after seeing yours!

It definitely looks more black than blue most of the time but the color is stunning. I wish the blue would show more but it is a nice color.
