Thumbs up New 01 L

3 weeks ago I took delivery of my Black 01 L. The one drawback is the money I keep putting into it (Alpine System, 6 disc, 10 inch sub, B/A Speakers, A.R.E. Tonneau with spoiler...so far) I drove to Vegas over the weekend and most of the Valets commented on how kewl they thought it was(not to mention numerous casino visitors)...
I love this machine !!
Thanks for all of the accurate/honest feedback. Those who participate in this message board are a big reason why I decided to make my purchase.....
Thanks !

Ain't it just so much fun, I have allready put a good amount of money into mine, and just ordered about $600.00 more. I hope it will stop emptying my wallet soon

Congrats! The folks here helped me make the plunge too, I saved a few bucks, placated the fiancee and have a truck that I love! The lightning is the only vehicle that I wipe off the bottoms of my shoes before I get in.
I wish someone would post more pics of an L with a bed full of potted plants so that I can feel better about using it as a truck again ;-)

Amen to all of this. I get ticked off when my friends lean on the truck, and even madder when they track grass or something in it. I've got smokin' hole in the pocket syndrome as well, but I've got a milder case as of right now. So far only an alarm system, hard SnugLid, wheel locks and locking gas cap. Just wait until I recover from the down payment!!

Are you out of your freakin' mind? Who can hear the damned stereo at 140 mph, anyway? You'd better get a chip, filter, and pulley quick, before you are drummed out of the corps.
