Pickuptruck.com article on Lightning concept [merged]
ford has stopped production on the Lightning to boast sales of the new 2007 Ford Sport trac Adrenalin. Impressive sut but it's not as impressive as the lightning.
Sport trac Adrenalin specs.
Supercharged 4.6Liter 32 valve DOHC(mustang cobra engine)
(390Hp - 390Ftlbs)
allwheel drive
6speed automatic (A first for Ford)
295/45/21 on 21X9 machined aluminum wheels
Ford Svt marketing sales maganger states
"The key to the Lightning's longevity was that its powertrain came in a useful package, also what other vehicle can crack the 1/4-mile in 13 seconds, approach nearly 150 mph on a track, and still tow 5,000 pounds or haul a 1,350-pound load? We think that same mix of ultimate performance with genuine utility makes the Adrenalin a perfect sequel to the SVT Lightning.”

I sure would love a Lightning but 50K thats way out of the ball park but ive always said if i won the lottery (not that i play) my first stop would be the Ford Dealership for a sweet looking gun metal grey one!!! Then build a garage to keep it in LOL! Hey a girl has to have her priortys!
I was looking around google and found this. I'm not sure how old the concept is or if it's been posted already. I know what I think about it lol. What do you guy's think?
BTW I know this is an old thread.
