Mart Man 03 L:

Thanks for the information you provided me through email it indeed helped a lot in me understanding just what I need to do in order to make this happen. As far as your wife goes, that is defiantly a keeper…


I really appreciate the responses you all are giving me, it is indeed like Fowl stated, just don’t know what to do and the feelings are all over the place, damn I am not even hungry, couldn’t sleep last night anticipating what might happen today.

I am sure all of you can understand but it’s hard for most people on just how unbelievable this feels to actually have an SVT Lightning parked in my garage. Stopped by work so I could take another 2 days vacation so I can wash it and polish it the way I like. All I let the dealer do was just wash it, no detailing, and no oil all over everything, just take the plastic off the seats and some soap to wash it. I know that may sound ****, but this is the best thing which comes right after actually having my daughter and actually having custody of my daughter…

Don’s Bolt I look forward to meeting you, Fast Gator and all those that do show up to the FFW at Epping. My truck will be stock, but it will still be a blast to meet all of you. I’ll set my tire pressures tomorrow to 32psi.

MAN I AM PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG, I cant believe it! You've been whining about getting a Lighning for as long as I can remember!

Give us details, when, where, how?
LMAO, I wouldn’t call it whining it was well beyond that, I was on my knees praying to the Lightning God’s above for this day to happen…

Bought it today at Portsmouth Ford in New Hampshire, got it for 30K, as far as “how” it was because the Lightning God’s above answered my prayers…

New screen name suggestion..... Bandit-SVT
Excited? Man I don’t even know what the word is; it is like being overloaded and beyond excited, like sitting here in a daze. I have been down to the garage, which is right underneath me like 6 times…

Yep, that’s a Lighting, yep my key unlocks the door, yep my key actually starts it, so it really has to be MINE!!!!!!

I am just beyond words…

That's true I am going to need another screen name...

Congratulations 01, almost three years since I purchased my "L" and I'm still loving every minute of it!!! These trucks are thoroughbreds they were made to run. Don't be afraid to let her rip.

I knew you had the bug. It wasn't a question of whether or not you would get one, but rather when!

Congrats on your purchase, and any time I can be of help, let me know. Now shouldn't you be outside putting a coat of Zanio on that bad boy

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I know you will get that thing all shiny and purdy!


I've found 35-36 psi in front works good and 32-34psi in the read works good, that is if you really want to push the truck in the twisties.
