Hi! I just ordered a 2000 lightning two weeks ago. I noticed this message board, so I thought I would join. As I'm sure you all know, I'm awfully excited, and dying of anticipation. This kind of looked like a support group for those waiting for thier lightning, as well as lots of good info once I get it. Nice to meet everyone, and I sure hope I love this truck as much as you all do.

I will vouch for CA's concern. However we weren't drag racing and if no one was drag racing then we couldn't be aiding it.

Welcome aboard Atom and a word for the wise. Nerver disagree with CA because she is always right! "I think that's a cop down there"

Atom,

I think the plan is to meet with the DA and see what he/she thinks first. Then maybe hire one of the ambulance chasing cheesey lawyers from t.v. hehe Just Kiddin'. Jared and I will talk about it later and decide. We are the 2 with the least amount to worry if that is possible. Thanks

YEP, I'm a huge Pink Floyd fan. That is indeed where the name came from. Good work, Wyldman. Not too many people catch that one. At any rate, best wishes to the Jailbirds...and if I can help in any way, let me know. I live in downtown Denver.

Welcome Atomheart, you will find soooo much info here it will take you weeks to sort through it all. Just use that 'seearch' there @ the top if you have any ?'s, they have probably already been answered. Enjoy your new truck when you get it & be prepared to drop some $$$$$!
