Spotted a fake Lightning today

Actually I have seen this Lightning before driving on the hwy. He stopped in to the store to look at something and I snapped a few shots.
The funny thing is the guy told me, when he entered the store, that his truck was a Lightning. I guess he was a superior being because he had a Lightning. I played his game for a while then I told him that what he had wasn't a Lightning and that he got ripped off if he thought it was. He finally admitted it wasn't a Lightning just a '01 f150 sport which the dealer dressed up as a '01 Lightning(not too good of a job because the mirrors and rear brake light weren't from a '01. I guess he also forgot the interior and wheels...I checked the differential just to make sure. He did have a Lightning muffler and tips.



People like him are the reason ricers think they have a chance against me.

The mud should have given it away. What does he do,
plow fields with it?

I've seen several wanna-bes, some were really hard to tell,
but most are really obvious. The only wanna-be I really
approve of is a Supercrew on that sight. It really looks good.

Im going home two days ago on the Katy Freeway toward 610 south.., when I spot an F250! with Lightning badging! and an SVT Badge on the bed of the truck! Huge extra cab, F250 PSD, with Lightning badges!

I pulled up beside him, he would never look over at me... so I hit the gas a little and let the blower whine.. he still did not look at me... he started to speed up a bit, we were already doing 80 or so, so I stepped on the L and hit full boost and left him.... I figured I should show him a real Lightning
