Looks like some overpriced dealer installed appearance items on an otherwise basic truck. I'd rather have a plain looking exterior with more creature comforts and more power. That truck is all 'show' and no 'go'.

Looks to me like dealer optioned RICE.

It's basically a Lightning Clone with ZERO guts and modified HD badges.

Makes we wonder how many "Lightning Kills" posted on LS1 and other sites were races against these slow dogs and other 'clones'

Yikes, he's used 20% of the tread on the front tires in just 500 miles!!! According to the text.

What a con.... that badge is obviously an HD badge with a sticker on top of half of it. Selling it "as is" is one thing, calling it a "one of a kind" or saying "only 6 made" is such bs. I guess he was lucky enough to find a dealer who was one of

only 2 or 3 dealerships in the U.S. had the authority to do
:rolleyes:

more like they were the only ones with customers gullible enough to fall for it...

That is a Joke. I'll also Agree that The F-150 Thunder is some Dealer in the South putting those badges on & calling it a Thunder. Why in the World would anyone have a Monster Tach on the Dash of a Truck that has a 4.2 liter V6. That things gotta be a Slow Boat to China! :devil:

You would have think they would have installed a black bumper on that thing. The wheels look like the Boss 5.4 wheels.

It is funny that he thinks the chrome rear bumper was an option on the so called thunder kit. All except Ls and STXs had chrome didn't they?
The badge looks like a heritage badge not a Harley. I am sure someone will fall for his BS story.

What's up with that S&M anal toy shifter handle? You Arkansas boys like to have everything made dual-purpose, eh?

I forgot about the "heritage" badge... I cant find a pic of one... I agree on second look, it is something other than an HD badge for sure....but still a badge with a sticker on top... well at least he wasnt selling it as an SVT I guess

I'm pretty sure those are King Ranch badges with a poorly designed and applied sticker. Send the SWAT team, asap before that guy bites his tongue off while taking photos. :p

I don't think he's fooling anyone with the "rare and exclusive" marketing plan.

I want that Thunder's steering wheel!

Is it from a regular F-150 or is it sourced from an Expy?
