It’s all part of the the “Summer Road Trip” promotion, which begins on the first day of July and will run for the entire month.

The promotion starts with the Ford F-150 RLE returning, and since it’s available the week of Independence Day, it features an American flag livery, complete with airplane graphics, because y’know, freedom! The F-150 includes a new decal, a player banner, and “Union Beams Boost.” The bundle is titled the “Red, White, & Boom Bundle,” and will coincide with the Heat Seeker 2V2 game mode that week.
