Was that awful yellow interior gone and did it have the mini swing out rear doors like the regular F150?

I thought in the original concept they were going to lengthen the doors and do away with the mini rear doors.

Good post

I am a bit sad to hear it is only a 2 seater. I like having the ability to sit 3 if need be. Sounds cool though.

Likely too expensive for a low-numbers vehicle.

awesome report!

I hope they do decide to build it here in VA at the F-150 plant.

then maybe we could get a tour and see a Lightning being built!

I toured that plant back in 1998, it's amazing to see the entire assembly process.

anyway, thanks again for the report, you lucky sob.

later,
chris

Same here. If I wanted a vette or viper then I'd buy one. It's possible that I might not have bought my current L without the ability to seat 3. I did not buy a Syclone back in the day for that very reason. There are people with families that use these as daily drivers and not penis extentions. LISTEN UP FORD!!!

What about the cooler that runs off the A/C unit and assists the intercooler?
