Well my sig says Houston but actually I live west of Houston about 25 miles in a little town called Brookshire, but who ever heard of that. The really great news is its only 15 minutes from my local dragstrip that I race at Lonestar Raceway. It's a 1/8 strip but close and the people that run it are all family and they are really great. I love to race there. Oh, I do have two protection systems, Colt and Smith and Wesson.

Did this this first few weeks. I wanted to see how fast I could go before JACK took a winger. After 4 Jacks, it got boring.

My Lightning is a truck. I've hauled thousands of feet of lumber. I also kept my trailer hitch on when I raced it a Laguna Seca. I hope to have a bumper sticker for the next road race that reads, "This is what it looks like when I'm towing you."

You're correct. Furthermore, I've given the "thumbs up" to Lighting owners while in rental cars and/or my wife's car. She has also. None have ever acknowledged the frequent gawkers who just want to let you know that "you're driving an awesome car." Give them a thrill and blip the throttle.

Does this include those who bought lowering shackles for $70?

You peaple are killin me, I havent laughed this hard in a while. (since I was reading this forum yesterday). Now for my .02

I think it should be a SuperChicken/Bulldog tee shirt. You all remember SuperChicken don't you?

My truck also sits outside, last year it made it through a neighbor hood bottle rocket fight without a scratch (4th of July) so I consider it indestructable now.

I'm gonna have to take exception to the Jack In The Box head on the antenna. I don't have one on now but every Christmas I put the Christmas Jack head on the antenna. It's a must.
As for waving to other L owners, almost every time I pass an L I give a thumbs up and only once have I not got the same back in return. Of all the places I thought such a thing would not happen I never immagined it would be that way here, but it's all positive so far.

 

That's it.

I HAVE to have one of those JITB ball things for my antenna.

Or, better yet, one of those old neon ones that the truckers used to put on CB antennas; they would glow whenever they xmitted with those illegal kW rigs...

Hmm.

Never mind, all I've got nearby is The Varsity, and I don't think an onion ring would stay on my (L bent) antenna very long...

Mine stays inside.
It is a truck, I haul things around in it.
I was wondering about the wave part too. Whenever I see another L I pull over, run em down whatever and talk to them. I have passed a few on the hightway and they don't even look. I think it comes form the fact that many of these people have not discovered F150Online yet.
Oh yeah, SVT, type R or any other badges that identify a vehicle as something it isn't is RICE to the MAX

CA -

I have always had a thing for the name Kerri, and the Anne just got added as I searched for something that sounded good together. I like the ring Kerri Anne Lightning has to it. That and I see my first daughter carrying the name Kerri Anne.

Kerri Ann was a song about MaryAnn Faithful, but the name was changed, probably on the advise of a divorce atty or something
