Mine isn't the _real_ deal, but go to my webpage and you can see what it might look like in silver...if its ever released.

I have some doubts.

I don't know anything about a factory Lightning Expedition, but the Jul/Aug 2001 issue of Truck Trend magazine (by Motor Trend) has the first installment of their Lightning Expedition project.
