of all the vehicles I have owned I would have to say that my 99 f150 lightning Wannabee is my favorite. I do love my 65 mustang but I can't really drive it in winter. My F150 is a blast to drive, it looks good gets around great in the snow and handles really well for a truck.
thanks. I always thought ford should have built an extended cab 4 wheel drive lightning, but they never did so I wanted to build one. I had ordered the stock lightning wheels and front bumper cover from a lightning and I was going to try to make it look like it could have been factory, but I got called up for Desert storm and ran out of time So I just bought the only wheels I could get in the time I had. and I never really got back to it. the ground effects were another thing where I bought what I could get in the time I had. anyway it is still a blast to drive.
the power stroke or V-10 might be good but my 2002 F-250 has a gas 5.4 V8 and I dont like it to much that 02 Duramax that I had was a good pullin truck!
Yeah the 5.4 got better mileage but you are killing that thing if you do any towing. I guess you could gear the crap out of it but then you wouldn't have a top speed either.
the kenne bell supercharger on my 5.4 wakes it up nicely, no it is not perfect for every job. the 1/2 ton truck is just too small for towing my haulmark trailer for instance. but I have this for towing. 2006 f250 lariat powerstroke turbo diesel.
