Well on my way home lastnight i stopped by a used car lot and looked at an 04 LIGHTNING! OMG!!!!!!!!!

I have wanted one of these since 99!

Not this exact one, just some eye candy, i can see it now a 4.0 Whipple on a 5.4l forged motor!:burnout:

I have had 4 lightnings at different times in the past. Money no object I would have one still. There is NOTHING in the world like driving a a forged 5.4 with a whipple on top. 125mph trap speed truck that you can still daily drive and tow the house off its foundation. Love em!

Yes those are bad to the bone and also the Nitemares. I wouldn't mind driving the 03 Harley Davidson supercharged Anniversary edition.

Sweet looking truck!

Anyone swapping in the older Navigator 4V DOHC 5.4 engines?

I bet those engine's with a Whipple are sick!

Never had a Lighting but there are Killer trucks. I recently got rid of my Nitemare (thats 445 hp) truck but I feel you have more bang for you bucks with a Lighting; JMO.

Really? I thought it would be the opposite, would love to hear your opinion on why.

Get the Lightning, they way more feared than that Nitemare. You never even hear about that truck. Lightnings were outrunning that SRT 10

Sounds nice but im looking for a 03 or 04 miles aren't overly important to me as a solid rust free body, im going to mod the living hell out of it anyhow! Lol

Here's mine. Just got it back today from the body shop after my Lighting Strike, deer strike that is. Just broke a lot of expensive fiberglass and a small crease on the right fender. Good as new:D

Don't hesitate, these trucks are a blast!
