Top 10 Signs You're a Lightning Owner
 

Top Ten Signs You're a Lightning Owner
--------------------------------------

10. When describing your truck to NLO's (non-lightning-owners) they will interrupt to ask, "what's a chipenfilter?"

9. You have done or contemplated doing things to make your truck louder.

8. You would rather own a Yugo than a Dodge R/T.

7. You have left work / vacation / date / honeymoon early so you could go home to wash your truck.

6. You haven't the slightest idea how your tires would handle in the rain.

5. You have participated in at least two "group buys".

4. When a Lightning pulls up beside you, you pretend not to notice by staring straight ahead or fiddling with the radio.
(oh wait, sorry, that's from "Top Ten Signs You're a 454 SS Owner")

3. You have more than one cleaning product just for the exhaust pipes.

2. You've passed Corvettes... While towing a 3500# boat... Up a hill.

And the number one sign you're a Lightning owner:

1. You measure tire wear in weeks.

If you know the difference in "pop" and "clunk", you might be a lightning owner.

If you check your "intercoolant" level each morning, you might be a lightning owner.

if someone asks "how fast will it go" and you answer, "i don't know" because your wife is standing next to you, you might be a lightning owner

Help Me! I can't stop!

- You have physically assaulted someone for saying your truck looks like a Chevy S10 eXtreme.

- You laughed so hard beer came out of your nose the first time you saw the commercial for Nissan's new supercharged 210 horsepower truck.

- You've got more kills than Ted Bundy.

- You've gone past your exit and three others trying to catch up with another L you spotted about a 1/4 mile up ahead.

- You refuse to race Gen 1 Lightnings because you feel sorry for them.

- You've lost 5 pounds from all the walking to and from the far end of parking lots.

- You'd rather stick a fork in your leg than drive on a dirt or gravel road.

- While you understand the meaning of the words "can", "I", "drive", "your", and "truck", they make no sense whatsoever together in a sentence.

I want that for my truck-Don't care what it costs!

You're a Lightning owner if you exit the freeway, pull off the service road, and get out of your truck to break wind.

Sixpipes, i used to have to do that, but a simple vent mod to the Johnny'Lightning Ram Air Kit and i'm recycling spent gasious vapors in a way that President Gore will love. and i think i picked up a tenth or something.

Cool. Methane injection. Have you run any tests on the dyno? And what diet do you suggest for maximum methane production? I can see it now at the local performace shop. MRBBQMAN's MAXIMUM methane production diet kit. (Comes with optional scrubber attachment for California residents / Not available in Rhode Island).

When you say, Yes, those trophies are mine, not my kids.

How about......

When you are at the track you spend more time wiping fingerprints off of your L than you do running the 1/4 mile!

MRBBQMAN, now that idea deserves a real seat of the pants test.

Sixpipes, the only certified dyno so far has been the Assjet 248c. first "push" was with a modified alligator sauce piquante. good pressure on the first, although some in attendence cried foul, because of the lingering sulphur presence. after the search for the blue bottle came up empty, the second "push" at a lower pressure was almost as good, and i sure felt better

oh my gosh, that was soooooo funny!!! I was laughing I thought I was going to eat dinner again (yuch)
