Bought it last night!! She's so pretty!!! Now I just gotta come up with a name for her. I was thinking Quick Silver, but that's kinda ehhhhh. I already got a plate picked out 1POINT21 (1.21), think about it, you'll get it. So far only 1 person I have told that idea to actually got it though.

I wanted the tag "HIO SLVR" on my Marauder (Hi Ho Silver) but never applied for it.

Sweet Truck Martin, Lots of luck to you with it. I guess you plan on getting your revenge on me for beating your GTP at the next PTM?? :burnout:

Nice truck. I would love one of those to add to the garage next to the Marauder to split daily driving duties with. Humm, maybe that is the route to go...

Sweet truck!
Give Rick and Linn over at Amazon a call for any mod needs. They specialize in Lightnings.

Thanks for all the kind words and well wishes!!
A pulley, exhaust, and a host of other mods are in store for after I get some extra cash together.
The 1POINT21 is for the fact that the only thing that can generate 1.21 gigawatts of electricity is a bolt of lightning. So all the BTTF guys, you're right!
And unfortunately no, I can't make the Hooters meet tomorrow :(

Nice truck, they are sleepers. A lot of people seem to think it's just a pickup truck. My buddy has a white 03, I really like them the only problem is their mpg. But it looks great, with a tag like that you might want to spend some time at this forum;) (http://www.bttf.com/forums/index.php)

Very nice peice.Lotsa luck with it.:up:
Mileage?anything done to it yet?

Are there any good websites besides the SVT forum for the Lightning? The more I think about it, it would be a decent daily driver plus the added benefit of the truck bed and an actual tow capacity. I saw this as I want to try and get my baby girl in to go-cart racing here in a few years and there would be something to haul stuff around with...
Hmmmm...:cool4:

Nice L. I've always wanted one, and I still want one. My buddy has an '03 in the same color. Full exhaust, intake, chip, a KB and a pulley = OMFG.

Good luck with it Martin.
Haldeman's Rt 33 store was like 10 minutes from where I used to live.
Wonder' if old man Haldeman ever replaced that 30+ y/o POS TV in the quick lube waiting room at the Rt 33 store. That just amused me for some reason with the money the man has.
