I don't like the over-the top riceyness of the lighning concept... just too many scoops that look out of place for me IMO. The 5.4 is a great motor for sure though. I don't like the wheels either.

The SRT has nice clean body lines and nice wheels, if I ever got it I would pull the wing off the back.

Looks: F-150

Performance: F-150(on account of the SuperCooler)

Overall package: Ford, baby

I guess they both are really fast. I hope you have a personal gasoline tanker follwing you around though. Last time I looked the Lightning was gettin 12/15 mpg. and I'm sure that is if you can keep your foot out of it.

Anyone else think they should Cram the V10 into the next lightning? The 351 would easily fit and the Cobra version could probably be squeezed in

What are we going on here...Looks or what? If it's looks I will go with the Dodge I don't like the concept on the lightning I hope thay change alot of stuff on the production model. If it's power the lightning will have as much as the dodge and I would go with the lightning.

I saw an SRT-10 Ram the other day at work...

That thing is pretty sweet... Just knowing that that truck can nearly keep up with an '04 Cobra... It's just a thing of beauty...

But, I think Ford will ultimately annihilate the Ram, especially if they implement the SuperCooler technology...

Doesn't the Dodge hold the record right now for the fastest truck? I hope the Lightning will take it back...(which it will)

I still have to go with the 150...this is a Ford Board by the way....

I don't know...I think they just threw in the Viper engine as a kinda novelty thing...it just happened to be pretty darn fast...
