We should start a list.

1)GEN 3 Lightning
2)SVT Adrenaline

I bet you that thing weighs at least 6500 pounds. It says the V10 puts out 400 lb ft of torque. Talk about a fu(king slug.

I saw it at the Detroit autoshow...looks better in person....everyone knows that a concept vehicle never looks the same by the time it makes it to production...its always watered down. It will probably come out on a regular supercrew size chassis...

just consider some of those styling cues to be in the 2010-2011 F150, which if Ford decides to build a lightning it will be based off that redesign and no sooner.

Saw it at the car show - not very impressed. Looks like something Flavor Flav would build on MTV.

Like Ford will ever build that As the old saying goes "It looks good on paper" and minimal at that.
