Where'd you get the tonneau cover?
Mine just came without a bedloiner or cover, and I'd really like to take care of that soon.

I think the best tag for that truck should be "EL PASO"
That rear tail shot is fine!
Is that air box custom...looks good.

 

Beautiful !
Do you ever have good taste in color.

Mine was built (or started) yesterday.
Not long now...

Thank you all guy's, and good luck with your 2001 L, by the way, I raced for many years in Europe with Ferrari, BMW and Porche.

Let me say one thing SVT did a tremendous job, there is nothing on the market that comes even close for $32.000.
And what I mean is not only the performance, butt the whole concept is very well balanced.

FD

 

That is a sweet ride, FD. I think you are a welcome addition to the board. Coming from a person of such vast automotive experience, your comments about the Lightning really validate my ill informed and impetuous decision to buy one. Btw, you're not really Arie Luyundyke, are you?

Alphadoggy,
I am still learning English, I find it enlightened to perceive your thoughts written with such a wide spread vocabulary.
If my humble advise can help you make a decision, don’t hesitate buy a 2001.
And no I am not Arie Luyundyke, may be AP in place of FD you never know on this board.

George, Arie, AP or FD we all love Lightnings

 

It would be interesting to see how many non-US/Canadian Lightning owners we have here. Since the overwhelming majority of Lightnings are sold in the US, we would have to limit it people not originally from North America. I am curious about international appeal.

It would be interesting demographical information at the very least. I wonder if we are more international than we let on.


Cheers,
Frans
