I think the Lightning makes one of the best daily drivers out there. But, since it is the better of my two cars I don't drive mine daily. I did for a couple of months though. Looked forward to going to work every morning

99 Lightning - 12K miles

43,000 miles yesterday. GREAT daily driver (except at the pump).

'99 Black Lightning #1212 5/12/99

 

Mine is a daily driver also. Whats the point if you don't enjoy it? I have to agree on the pump deal. I stayed out of it for a whole tank of gas and it got the same mileage. I say be proud and enjoy it everyday!!

2000 (delivered 3-28-00) with 16K miles. I drive it around town and on the highway just about every day. Does great. Also made a 13hr only-stop-for-gas trip with no back or a$$ pain. Like everyone else says though, the only thing is you can't pass by a gas station. If you're even leaning towards thinking about trying to possibly buy one, DO IT!

Same here, daily driver and it's my only vehicle. Even if I had another, it's too fun not to drive! Had it almost 3 months and I've got 5000 miles on it.....most of which came from when I purchased it in Iowa and drove it back to Dallas,TX.

I also had a 1998 Suzuki 750 Katana, but I sold it after getting my Lightning 'cause I didn't ride it anymore. If there were 5 cars in my garage I'd still drive the L everyday!

Mine was a daily driver from May to November and I racked up 5K miles. I'm now driving a 97 Ranger to work and back and I drive the L on weekends. I can concentrate while I'm at work now because I don't have to worry about some bonehead dinging it up in the parking lot. All those trips to the window and out to the parking lot "just to make sure" took a lot of time.

Duck - Was your L really delivered with 16K miles on it?

purchased 04/00 Now has over 13K

 

Picked mine up in April, like FORDSALES....

Just turned 4000 fun miles.

During this, many stops at the gas station!!

 

The wording on that statement was confusing. I meant "It was delivered to me on 3-28-00 and to date I've put 16K miles on it." The truck was delivered with 6. I guess I finished my english classes so long ago that I've starting losing what little I learned.
