I brought it back to the top in the EVENTS AND HAPPENINGS (How's a Milan Meet in April).
I believe the time frame is around 1PM-8PM. Hope to see ya there. If not, we'll have to plan a meet there.

Snow + lightning = bad...
But I do use my for a daily driver..
Last winter I had 3 or 4 days I was really happy I work 2.1 miles from home. Nothing over a 35, and I drove home at 25. I wouldn't recommend it, and as others have stated there is a warning on the door telling you not to use the stock tires in snow. It would probably do fine if you switched to some decent off road tires for the snow. I just use mine so little and I'm not the type that has to go out on a snow day anymore.
As far as mileage, just count on 11 to 13. If you have a foot line mine, maybe 8-10. I does get expensive.

------------------
* 99.5 Black Lightning
* Personal Best ¼ Mile 13.99 @ 97.75 Mph. (Bone stock, ready to run low 13’s now)
* Ohio Plate SVT2GO
* Sal’s Chip and Filter
* Interceptor Trans
* All three Factory options for 99
* Factory CD Changer
* Class 3 Towing Hitch
* Factory Tonneau Cover
* 8" Bazooka Tubs
* Kenwood 80 watt *2 amp
* Viper 550 Alarm w/ remote start
* Often found in the bed: 98 Yamaha Banshee/Pro Design Cool head/ Toomey T-5 Chrome Racing Pipes/ Wiseco Power Pistons / Boyesen rad valves
Injection is nice, but I'd rather be blown. 99 Lightning, the best of both worlds!

Thanks for the replies!!
West side. Grand Rapids to be exact.
I haven't seen too many Lightnings on the roads around here. One of the Ford dealerships had a used white one from about December to February but it's long gone. That's the only one I've seen at a dealership around here.

Where abouts are you in MI?
