I think the most love to take a look at this truck. If you are drive with open window in the city you will here the children scream (cry ?) "wooooaaaaa"
Everytime!!! ... i go to take some fuel, the people start talking to me...
I never got a negative feedback since now.

The guys in the gas station are my "best friends" since i got the Lightning (yesterday i got 86 litre 100octan for 106,00 Euro = 22,63 gallons for 135 US $


In germany you have to be a crazy Lighning-Lover to get your own truck home.

100 octane?
We only use that when we go to the track, not for daily driving.

Save some money and put 93 octane in there, until you add more mods.



haha... just had a thought... what are the odds that you photochopped that picture?

They have a different way of rating octane over there. There 100 is our 94.

This time Photoshop only helps to get the websize

At the Moment i take a look at my MPG with 100 octane
The first times i only use the 95 octane. But now it looks like the MPG will grow up !
The difference between 95 octane and 100 is per gallon 0,52 US $

Next time we will be 3 L.
I am waiting of a package from Dynojet, then I can reinstall my WBC and then I'm back on the road.

3 L in 3 different colors with more than 140mph on the Autobahn, thats cool!!!

Must be nice.
The 2 years I spent in Hanau with the 3rd Arm Div, The only vehicle I ever got to take on the Autobaun was a M548.

A few posts after yours Andre04 sez he only used it to shrink the image, if you look at the second shot you can see the reflection of the open hood from the front L on the one in the background - almost impossible to fake.

Andre's photos are too cool!

I was on vacation in Germany ages ago & the rental I had would only do about 150KPH on the autobahn. Still great fun though.
