Seeing this isnt the first post with you and dodge being semi lovers :)

Its pretty obvious by a couple of your threads that you are a mopar guy.Anybody who would 'THINK" about trading a Lightning in on a mopar has issues.Specially a car ,not even a truck....... You need to do option 3.If not ,you need option 1 and instead of doing #1 and mods,You need to do #1 and use the money for professional help for your mopar illness....LOL LOL

Learn from me,Ive been through 3 generation 2 lightnngs and have lost mucho $$ on 1 of my trucks I sold.As much as i want a sonic blue,I will not start in 5 more years of payments just for a color.If i had my 99 still,id have like 1 year left of payments instead of 4 .......DAMN......................

Ummm..........

Unless you are joking I think we need to clear some things up here. I HATE MOPARS. The only one that strikes any interest in me is a Status RT. Only because you can get a 5-speed. If they made new Taurus with a 5-speed I would probably be driving it right now. So maybe you missed my sarcasism in my previous posts. I am sorry.

Call me crazy but Viper = Butt ugly in my book. I want a daily driver not a 500CI gas hog. -Mat-

2001 18,500 miles. Mint. $20,500 at a local dodge dealer in CT. I was looking at Stratus RT's and told him to put a number on my truck for giggles. I laughed at him to say the least. -Mat-

Hey guys as you probably have read I am in the process of buying a 03 L. I have heard a refernce made to Plan X a couple of times. This may just be some lingo that I havent picked up. If it is something special, let me know. I am trying to find all the good deals as possible. Keep in mind I am in college and these the money issues are important.

I say #1

Keep your truck, and save for a built motor.

Or how about this

Sell your truck, and find a real beet up 99 for cheep money. Then take that truck and build it the way you want.

keep it

keep it and put the money into it. I've been so pumped about the sonic blue lightning since i've seen the pics. Well this weekend I saw one at the dealership for the first time. After standing next to it for 5 minutes, i was over it.

Plus, the "newness" of the new truck will where off after a couple months of the new payments, not to mention how much you will be insulted when they give you a trade in value on your truck!!!

The 02 and down body style isn't that bad but I just can't dig the 03's. I would much rather buy a Cobra R and pocket the rest. -Mat-

Yeah the 03s are a let down. they are kinda ugly. The 02s are sweet though. Just my crazy opinion.

Here are the choices:

1). Keep my Lightning, save up a few more dollars and go for a built bottom end with heads and cams. If I do this later on this year I will probably buy a new Ford truck also for next winter.

#1 - Buy this 900hp 32v 5.8L naturally aspirated mod motor. Bottom end is built for 2000hp
