It must happen to everyone....?
I don't know about you guys, but everytime I get gas(like every other day), there's always somebody there that asks questions or makes some kind of comment about the Lightning, so I thought I'd share my collection.
1. Question: How's it on gas? Answer: Absolutely loves it!
2. Question: Does that have a V-6 or Triton V-8?
3. Question: Is it as fast as it looks?
4. Question: Will it keep up with the mustangs?
5. Question: How much did it cost? Whoa! You know the Dodge R/T is only $20,000. Answer: Blow me.
6. Comments: For a couple of more dollars, you could have gotten the bright red one.
7. Question: Let me put leather in there for you. (courtesy of some aftermarket installer).
8. Comments: It'd would have been better in an extended cab so you could put the kids in the back.
9. Comments: That can't be stock.
10. Question: Can I take it for a test drive?
If anybody has others, please feel free to share them.

I too have had some memorable comments.
1) From 1 of the 2 ladies in an Explorer:
Can I go home with you ?
2) From a guy in a '98 Camaro (auto):
I have tried racing one on the street and it was going away from me.
3) From a Dodge dealer when I was looking at the R/T:
We don't have anything that can compare.

This one's from the salesman that sold me my Mustang, after telling him I also have a 99 Lightning:
salesman: I sold one of those to a fireman a few months ago, he went and put a supercharger on it.
me: but they come supercharged
salesman: oh then he put a turbocharger on it
me: damn
