Millworks Board Versus Lowes for fence pickets. Which is better?

Compare and contrast quality and price of a Lowes cedar picket versus Bellingham Millworks.
Millworks:
1. Price $10-$14+ depending on size
2. Thickness 3/4 inch-
3. Density 9-10 growth rings
4. Color richer caramel color
Lowes
1. Price $5-$9 depending on size
2. Thickness 5/8ths inch-
3. Density 4-5 growth rings
4. Lighter tan color
My summary:
If you can spring for the spendier wood go for it. It will be stronger and last longer if installed properly. The color is superior and the density is 2x better.
If economical style is preferred go lowes.
Our local Bellingham Lowes crew is the best and they can deliver your pickets.
