indy shift paddles?
Formula 1 paddle shifters are all things wonderful.. 
IndyCar/IRL/Cart still have a stick but with a sequential Emco gearbox.

You wont be able to shift a L with a manual like you do with a car.

.I heard about the Ford people putting diesel in the f150s. But does it look like I have the money to support diesel gas mileage? No! But I look forward when they begin to make more of the manuals, and drop the automatic games.
The lightning is a hot truck, do not get me wrong. But I was just wondering did anyone ever modify one to make it a manual. Thanks, Guys.

A Ford Lightning should not allow a normal gear ratio in a manual transmission. Are they not all turbo, and supercharged. I am not sure what kind of gearing system they were using but obviously, it did not work.

Do us all a favor and shut the hell up. You have no F*CKING Clue what you are talking about. Everyone can realize that from the title of your post because the Lightning only came auto.
So get your head out of your @$$.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAAH AHAHAHAA You Moron go back to the Dodge rooms you were recently kicked out of. This aint no place for a youngster like yourself. Youd get hurt playing around real trucks like these guys own. Get yourself a suzuki sidekick and a job as a lifegaurd on the beach so you can sit on your little stand and keep smoking that **** you must be smoking. And dont forget the sunblock. Im sure you already know this since you seem to know everything else (except were to find a hick shift) that @ssHoles do burn!!!
