I went to the dealership today for the 3500 mile oil change on the GT.While I was wiating they had this awesome Lightning w/5.4 S/C.Is 24K to much for this darn near perfect condition w/52K miles on it?I really don't know much about these trucks but this thing really screwed down the road,just nasty badd.

 

Pat,

STEP AWAY FROM THE CHECKBOOK!!!!!!!

You think Mustangs are bad in snow????

 

Sounds like you may have a new toy in your driveway in the morning!!!!

 

Jump on it! Do the motor swap this weekend and post vids early next week!

 

5.4??? What year was it?....and if it was supercharged...that was done aftermarket...
The last Lightnings....which I assume this one was...and would cost anywhere near 24K had the terminator motors...S/C 4.6L 32V

 

what are you talking about...the last gen lighting had a 5.4 2v SC engine.

put out 360hp in 99-00 i think and uped to 380hp in the new years.

 

Lightning never had 4.6L.
1993-1995 had 5.8L (240 hp) and 1999-2004 had 5.4L (360 hp and later 380 hp).

 

Wow......My bad......oops.... .....no one saw that did they?

I cant believe that! I thought for sure they had the Cobra Motor! I am ashamed of myself....Anyone have about six feet of rope???

 

It happens to the best of us

 

As bad as i want the Lightning I really need a 4wd so I'm gonna catch my breath and hope to find a nice F-150 4x4. I work up in the mountains when duty calls so I have to be practical and look past getting another toy.I have two projects in storage already.
Lemme tell you folks this Lightning was really nice.

 

I think you will be satisfied with F-150, but its very underpowered (especially 4.6L). I bought brand new F-150 last summer and I love it (especially during winters), but I wish it had more power.

 

I love the current F150... such a great looking truck.. get the 5.4 3v!
