I'm torn. The body cladding on the Saleen looks cheap. I think SVT Concept Lightning was executed better, but alas that was just a concept.

Why can't they make Lightning with SuperCab or SuperCrew?

its stock F-150, ford doesnt even offer a standard tranny in the half ton pick-up anymore. its too bad this thing doesnt have dual 3 inch exhaust, but how much ya wanna be its 1 pipe with a splitter tip? anyways i like it, i'm glad the new f-150 has got more perf versions, some1 needed to do something, its pretty gutless.

Why can't they just make it period? We can talk about expanding the range later.

I think making it 4x4 would kinda defeat the purpose of a lighting...

What would be cool is if they had a VCD that could control the power split between the fronts and rears. Of course that wouldnt jive real well with the F 150s 4x4 system.

I think the truck looks nice (except for the black on the tailgate)
Also, to answer the question as to why you would want a fast truck; believe it or not there are people who need a truck for work but would also like to go fast as well.
