My dealer is getting one of each next week. They are not spoken for, and he will sell them for MSRP. Anyone interested shoot me an e-mail.

When I see this it makes me sick. How come somedealers have two or more L's in stock, while I and I am sure others are still waiting for there truck to be built.

I think SVT should make sure all customers orders are filled before making trucks for dealer stock.

It just aint fair.

 

I could not agree with you more, Donald. Somtimes life's not fair, is it. I don't think its the dealer's fault, he's going to take as many SVT vehicles as Ford will send him, spoken for or not, because he knows that he can make a healthy profit on them and next year's allocation is based on what he sells this year. FoMoCo should fill the customer's orders first and then build the trucks for stock. Now if only we ran the universe.....

 

Don C - you think thats bad, check out OASIS auto center in old bridge New Jersey, they like 6 lightnings already. And the Ford dealership I'm getting mine from (Downs Ford) doesn't get them in til March.

'01 Red Lightning Ordered 11/30/00
Build week of 2/19/01

 

For me, it was a difficult decision in my minds eye. The dealer already had a white, and I asked for a black. Three days later, they had both, and I parked them side-by-side. My decision took less than 5 minutes... the white shows better. This is a beautiful truck, and black hides the lines, IMHO.

I had to choose between white and black also. The dealer had one of each, side by side. The black certainly looks cool, but white is SOooo much easier to take care of. I am really lazy and just run mine white one through the car wash once a week, and the paint still looks great. A black one would show any little paint imperfection, swirl marks etc. So, get a black one if your the type that likes to spend lots of time taking care of the paint, polishing and cleaning all the time...etc. Or get a white one if you are not the type to devote every weekend to make your truck look good.
