I was just at a local Ford Dealer and saw a Ford F-150 Nightmare. Said 450 HP on the windshield, 1 of 100 built.

I never saw or heard of that before. I think it was a 2006 or 2007....

Same dealer has 4 Mustang Bullits, three GT-500's with the 5.4 L S/C and a Shelby. I had no idea there was enough $$$$ in Buffalo and the surrounding areas....

It is a 2007 that is based on the STX Special Edition. The ones for 2008 are based on the FX2 and have the flareside bed.

I remember reading about it. Looks good. I think I'd want to lower a bit though.

Nothing special about the Roush truck. I personally think the Roush logo Fords are overpriced junk. I would rather put a Trilogy kit on the F-150, then give it a custom paint job and badging. Then call it what the Fu*k I please to call it. :flamer:

:rofl: Good one. Yes, Roush is definitely overpriced and their S/C's are alot smaller than Tril,Whipple, KB's :rock: Better off gettting a FX2 for alot less money, and do your own set up, maybe :nos:

True nothing special about tier version but at least with Rousch you get a warranty.

But as soon as you try to increase HP? Perormance POOF all gone warranty

I do like the looks of this.
I would lower it w/wider tires.
Maybe loose the hood scoop - unless it is somehow functional.

NOT!! Roush does bolt on parts. And the truck RWHP is crap..with the 4R75 tranny to boot. they should have installed the 4R100 a la S/C'd Harley trucks from 2002-2003 :confused:

The other week, I got an mailed invite from my local Ford dealer, offering me the "opportunity" to buy a 2008 F-150 CHip Foose Edition... Woo-pee-dee-doo!

I threw it out, but I think the pricing was around $58K Canadian!!! For this:

Uhmm... I'll keep my Lightning, thank you very much.

There's a Foose edition F150 parked at my local Ford dealer for over several months now, and I agree way over priced.

Ford should make a New Lightning. The name is right just make a Hybrid V8 SC'd.

Have a couple driving modes. One making gobs of power, a real sport mode, and another being the economy mode. Lower RPM shifts and maximized fuel economy.

A F150 with 600 BHP combined, but getting 35 MPG would be good for Ford.

The day someone figures out how to get 35mpg out of a 5000lb vehicle with the aerodynamics of a fridge AND make it fast would be good day, for anyone! That day is not likely to be tomorrow, tho :depress:

I thinks thats kinda how they messed up the Marauder. They tried to put out a fast car that was relatively good on gas.
