Ford In Oakville,
Repeat after me.... This is supposed to be a informative, fun, educational message board.
This is after all the internet. Calm down, the reason people post here and read here is because they want to learn. If every misstatement or supposition is answered by the type of responses here, first no one will listen to the writer, second they will stop reading the board.
The photo on the top of this post is poor enough quality to look like it has been played with. Fuzzy and pixelated.
We accept that you know more about yellow, lightnings than anyone on the planet, but would have preferred it if you werent screaming and condescending while delivering the message.

PS: Let me get down to your level for a second, If you work at the plant then we can blame you for the poor quality of workmanship we see in many of these posts right ?? The doors that dont close, the body work that doesnt match, the intercooler problems...... Wrong - I at least am smart enough to know that you likely have nothing to do with the quality issues, that you work hard and do the best you can with the tools Ford and God gave you.

The Vehicle moves around, its driven by many different people. but the last time I saw it just sitting at the back of the plant, well used and lots of Miles getting worn and rough (I'll check next time I see it) Yes the NEW wheels are chromed, Good eye! OH! Kennedy Ford paint facility did the work and it ss frequently used because of their quality and expertise in Painting special projects or repairs for FOMOCO or Canada

OH! Come ON! I'm just having some fun with the regulars on the message board. I've been reading for some time but only posting replies recently. I've read many different disscussions and topics and seen ALL types of posts'- funny, ironic, sarcastic and witticism. I throughly enjoyed everyone's comments, expertise, knowledge and extensive information and wide-ranging interest about Ford, F-150's and Lightnings. I ONLY wished to engage in your witty repartee and banter, I guess you just don't understand my sense of humour- I'm Canadian after all! I'm clearly no Jim Carey of Mike Myers Oh Well!
Talk about touchy If you have so many quality problems with Fords, Why do you buy them?
I don't work on the line so I can't speak for the workers assembly.
And I only know about the ONE yellow Lightning built at the OTP (I'm not aware of any others built elsewhere) by then plant manager Charles Shortridge.
Thanks for the SLAM! It's nice to be recognized.

Interesting Pic.....I gather the two interior shots of the truck are both of the same truck, judging by the background? It looks great in yellow. I just noticed one thing though, did they change the wheels to chrome in one of the photos? In the first indoor photo, the wheels look the stock silver, but in the second, they look chromed. Either way, I like it. I have been at the back of the plant and didn't see it there as of last week. I didn't think that Kennedy Ford was an SVT dealership? Oh well...I could be wrong.
