Is it really a lightning? SOmeone checek the VIN for that. It actually doesn't look like one to me, seems the interior trim don't look right, tailgate emblem, just doesn't look right to me, could be all the rice in the picture

I used to go to car shows, while I still think its stupid, I know where the TV's in the doors are coming from. (they try to stick TV's everywhere, regardless of purpose, like the back of rear seat headrests, etc)
The part that made me laugh was "needs new shocks, doesn't stay up to well on its own without replacing them". lol.

rear badges
there are a TON of 04 trucks that ended up with those badges instead of the SVTf150 badges. 1 guy at the track said he thought he had one of the last ones made and ford just ran out, but his was one of the first 200 made in 04.
Got me???

Yeah, the lack of the "SVT F150" emblem is fishy...
But...the whole thing is fishy. Anyone with any brains to take an f150 and put a SVT supercharger and air kit on should be able to put the belt on correctly.
Also, note the times on the pictures...especially the one for the engine...7:01...then look at the front picture (the one at night) it says it's 7:33 Yet it's bright outside? I may be missing something...but I know it doesn't get dark that fast here in Georgia...
Tallimeca: The guy is claiming his truck is an '00...they weren't out of the emblems at that time...if ever...
Ok, nevermind, I posted my response before reading to see if anyone had looked it up on carfax. Sorry!
