I think a lot of people are getting conflicting results.... The Mustang will be first followed shortly by a ramp up on the Lightning....

Here is something cut/pasted from correspondence from SVT directly (supposedly, I didnt get it so take EVERYTHING with a grain of salt)

Give up the goods! What are you holding back?:confused:

I've heard of some "refinements" that will be made to the F150, in another year, or maybe even two. I can't see SVT releasing anything, until the platform has stabilized, and won't change for a least a three-year timeframe.

Go look at "the other Todd"'s thread on the SVT Cobra. Apparently somebody who attended this preview has posted photos on Stangnet. As you can see in the thread in the post I made, at that event was the SVT Sport Trac mentioned by Bigslim. So, there it is. The unveiling at the New York Auto Show will be the SVT Shelby GT500 "Cobra" and the SVT Sport Trac Adrenilin.

Autoweek said that eventually SVT will have five products, so expect three more vehicles, the Lightning for sure and probably a Mercury and Lincoln (the article mentioned that SVT would be doing vehicles for the other two divisions as well).
