It looks like Ford has decided to pull the plug on the Lightning until at least 2008.

I guess Dodge has the only honest hot-rod pickup now.

Oh well

 

That's a shame. I really like those trucks.

 

DAMN IT....that sucks. I like those trucks. I've been contemplating buying a new one when I graduate and get some money. I guess it's not that bad though, because I don't want to see a Lightning that looks like the 04 F150.

 

Another Ford bites the dust.

 

U kiddin? Ive seen em on the road

 

I was never a fan of L's... but I think this model would have been the nicest yet.

There was a discussion about this in the Racers Lounge, I believe.... there was a fair amount of "proof"...

 

So they do make an 05??? Wow! I wasn't aware. I'll keep an eye for them. Do they have the gay *** M series heat extracters and all the fins too?

 

This could be a good thing for us. Now hat GM wont have to compete agents the L the market may be right for GM to finally get their heads out of their asses and put out a sport truck

 

Look at a new M3 front end......the similarity is amazing. Kind of a rip off, but then again not really, since it's a truck. It does look better than the regular F150.
