Where has everyone gone?
My last Lightning friend has sold 2002 Lightning, WTF....
Everyone is or has sold their Lightning, what gives??
Am I the only original Lightning Owner left??

 

I remember when the Lightning was a marvel. Car guys said we were not telling the truth about our ETs. I still have my 1999 and it is in terrific condition. I wish I had a Lightning savvy shop near by (60441) My Ford dealer has done all my recalls and changed the plugs once. I've used it to haul stuff as well. A really useful vehicle. Mods are modest - Air Raid, Superchip, and American Racing wheels (20 inch)

 

For every seller there is a buyer .. full of excitement... Wanting to avoid mistakes in the mods they do

 

They have moved on to other forums. Lightning specific forums.

I still have mine! Almost 48,000 miles on it, Still not been driven in the rain. Same mods I had in 2001, chip, K&N cone filter and Magnaflows. Don;t come around here often, mostly at IMBOC.

 

yep, even Vinnie still has his Lightning

 

I had 3 of them. traded my '93 when i went through divorce because i needed a car. bought a 2003, drove it fot 130,000 =, used to to haul my dirt bikes in the bike, or in my 12 ft trailer. it was a good truck, until it threw a plug, and went up in flames. good thing is i paid 28,000 new, got 19,000 for it when it burned about 3 years ago. bought a 94 and drove it for a while, but traded it in for my 2012 f150 i have now.
the 2003 was awesome, i would still be driving it, if it hadn't burned like that. it was lightly modded.

here it is about 2 months before it burned


and after


my 94 that I just got rid of:

 

Still have mine... 155,000+ on her, still runs like a beast !!

Hands down the best truck I've ever owned.

Been thinking about getting a new 4x4 though - Lightnings aren't much good in the snow or during hunting season activities.

 

ordered mine in 1999 and it's still in the shop in its private parking space. has about 14,000 miles,kooks headers and is still as much fun to drive today as it was the first day I got it.and it's a keeper! still read up on what's going on here about once a week.

 

I have two red ones 03 and 04

 

I have 3 of them. My Silver 2000 that I bought new, my 2004 Sonic Blue I purchased last year and a Red 95 I have had for several years.

 

Holding on to mine! 40k driven most every day!

 

Still have mine. Build #39 of the 04's.... Still have the original window sticker and everything.... Just lost the interest. I'm gonna get reamed for this, but I'm all into the new Camaros, lol!

I shouldn't have admitted to that on this forum, lol!

 

Unfortunately I had to get rid of mine. I loved that truck to the day I traded it in. I still miss it. I traded it in on a SuperCrew F150 w/ecoboost because I bought an offshore fishing boat that shouldn't be towed with a small/light truck. With a few mods that are unconventional to a Lighting my 02' Lighting could have pulled that boat but better judgement prevailed and I replaced it with the right tool for the job. It was my daily driver for 11 years 166k miles and I ran it at our local track OFTEN.
