Saw it on TV the other day. Impressive and I like the fuel door inside but what a pain in the ass to fuel up. We had a 3/4 ford that had 3 gas tanks on it. The two side saddle ones had the fuel caps in the rear wheel well openings, that was bad enough.

1700 pounds less than the Lightning with the same power. :Q

Oh heck yeah!! plus a shorter drivetrain too, that'll make it more reliable to add lots more power too ;)

That's why you bundle in a little scooter in there along with it so you get an average gas milage of oh....60MPG :D

Oh hell yes. I have been looking at a Ranger as my next vehicle. Now a Ranger with a 5.4 Liter V8. Now we are talking. :D

i dunno, it's hard to argue with power like that, but if you want a sports car, buy one. very few people who buy a truck like that will ever make use of the cargo bay in a way that they couldn't do just as easily in a wagon.
