I wonder if the roof impact would have been wider and less deep (into the passenger compartment) IF it did not have to vista panoramic roof? Meaning that a larger metal roof would have more room to flex into a wider pattern and not as deep?

That truck is done, none of the doors line up, roof smashed, rocker panels and pillars are flexed and bent and the whole body is no longer true. Time to smash up and say bye bye. Rear part of the frame is also bent upward, she’s toast. Only way to fix that is a new frame and body..... oh wait that’s the whole truck....
It's not listed for sale to get repaired, surely. That engine and probably most of the powertrain are in perfect condition, great as salvage for repairing another vehicle involved in a collision.

View attachment 23124 View attachment 23125 I don’t have any interior shots yet. 1st was dealership photo that was sent to hubby showing it arrived. 2nd was the next day where I was still in disbelief.. I’ll update more later.

@Spoiledhappywife would you be willing to post a few more pictures of the blue in various lighting? This and the stone gray (which also looks nice online) are the only two colors I haven't seen in person.

I'm likely going with white, but I'd like to see a bit more of the blue, as I've always wanted my next SUV to be a dark/deep blue color (like the dark blue offered on the Tahoe / Yukon). I have a feeling this blue is a few shades brighter...

The Yukon blue is definitely darker. I test drove a blue Expy Max today. It’s a great color but noticeably lighter than the Yukon blue.

That's what I figured. But it's not one of those crazy bright blue colors Ford has on a few of their rides, right? A guy in my office drives a F-150 that is so bright blue, it hurts my eyes.

Has anyone seen the stone gray in person?

No, the Expy blue is very nice, classy, and on the darker side. It looks very nice.

The Yukon blue is also very cool, but it’s very dark and even looks black at night, which I actually also like. I have not seen the stone grey.

Sat in a platinum red at the auto show yesterday..... first time Ive been in a platinum version, very nice...... wanted to take it home, couple things I didn’t like and a lot I liked. Definitely lower than my truck despite what the ground clearance says sitting in it..... I dunno, I need it to feel a bit more trucky! I’ve never lost a vehicle before, but we couldn’t find my expy anywhere!! We circled downtown in 15 degrees with high winds for an hour and a half going through every parking lot and my 07’ was nowhere to be found. Nobody could remember where we parked! Ended up calling someone to come get us and we came back with other vehicles gridding the city until we finally found my truck, Buffalo is not big! I’ve never been disoriented before so this was a first and it’s not a pleasant feeling. Thought I lost my truck and didn’t know where I was. Funny what cold does to you, when I came back in a car I knew exactly where I was, but being cold and outside we quickly got turned around and lost. Still can’t believe I lost my truck in Buffalo, really!?! Was so happy when someone spotted it to jump in and get home.

That's a bummer. Glad you found it. I would have thought someone stole it.

The stone grey is gorgeous in person and I almost went with it over the platinum white. It looks brownish, with a little gold depending on the light. I didn’t end up picking it because, in my opinion, it didn’t look good with the satin chrome accents on the platinum trim exterior. It looks better with the limited/xlt accents.

Here’s a pic I took in person. c23e94c7d4bfbb742a2d35384fc607c4.jpg
