And that says something because I'm normally like a three year max kinda person when it comes to vehicles and I've had my last Lightning for nine years now. Honestly, I came close, I had an ad on Craigslist a few years ago and the day the people where coming to buy it I couldn't do it....

Owning a 2011 Camaro with a 6 speed auto with tap-shift which I only drive using the paddle shifters, I was thinking how bad-ass the Lightning would be with a 6 speed paddle shifting transmission over the grandpa cruiser 1985 Cadillac 4 speed. Surely a 6 speed in itself would help accelerating...

I have an 04 Lightning and cannot even use this for a spare. As you can see from the pic, it's in great shape. No reasonable offer will be refused (not looking to make a lot of money, just want it gone). Local pickup only near Columbia, NJ.

I dunno, now that I have a serious buyer with cash in hand that wants to come as soon as Friday night I am really not feeling comfortable with letting it go although in the back of my mind I know it's getting older and lesser value everyday not to mention I don't even drive it anymore. Whew that...

It's been doing this and getting worse. I'd say about 8 out of 10 times trying to start the truck it will turn over but wont fire up and the little theft light in the gauges will be flashing. Turn the key back to off and then the theft light goes off. Try to restart and it may and may not start...

I've lost all my enthusiasm towards the Lightning which was my first dream vehicle that I went crazy for, lol. Guess what I have the hots for now? Gulp... The Chevy Camaro. Flame suit engaged...lol. :burn: I already bought one, but a V6. I'm very happy with it, and I think stock for stock it has...

My 2004 Lightning has been frequently not wanting to fire up. The starter turns over but it's like there's no fuel? At the best I have to turn the key off one time and then back to the on position and let it sit in the on position for a second or so and then it will fire up. The worst case was...

I'm having an extremely difficult time trying to find subs that fit this truck without loosing leg room. Stopped at Best Buy today and even the little Kicker 10" sub box I lost about 4" of tilt with the seat (I like to have my seats tilted until the top touches or is about a half inch away from...

I'm thinking about trading in the L for a new 2011 f150. This Lightning is actually the longest I've ever stuck to one vehicle which shows how much I liked the Lightnings but on the other hand I'm really getting burned out on driving and looking at the same vehicle for the last five years. So I...

When I go over uneven bumps I get a clunking sound in the rear of the truck. When parked I can rock the bed and make the clunking sound. It almost appears that the axle is shifting a little in the axle housing. Can the rear axle bearings be tightened up the same way as the front with tightening...

Bought some Duralast rotors and pads from Autozone and the Duralast rotor rubs the bracket. I can get it on, but only with the bearing loose as hell! Then when you properly tighten the bearing it rubs or wont even go on. Then I tried the new Duralast pads on the stock rotors but those pads are...

Going back to the stock air box as the open air filter gets too dirty too quick on a daily driver, especially one driven in the rain and I lost the ring gasket where the mass airflow assembly attaches to the airbox but can't find the part number. All I can find is the complete air box assembly...

Two fill ups ago I noticed that if I mashed the gas at 60 where it kicks down there was a major stumble/hesitation that lasted a couple seconds before the motor would take off as normal. It almost feels like a slip/shudder, but if it was just a slip, the motor should rev normal. It was the same...

Kinda having a hard time finding rims I like in the stock Lightning size. I basically want a chrome five spoke rim (I hate the look of rims that has the entire spoke area filled in). Actually I wouldn't mind the stock chromies is they where still available. Right now I'm looking at these. I...

Back in the day, even before I was driving and my friends would get pulled over they would hand the officer all their info (license, insurance, registration) all together in the plastic pouch that you normally get for holding your insurance card but I've noticed lately if you try to do that...

Hey guys, I haven't been on the boards or into my Lightning in the past couple years. Just when I'm feeling my vehicle is getting old and out of date I took it out yesterday and I'm STILL getting comments and questions on it from people! I really can't believe the old dinosaur is still getting...

Around 4:16pm making a left off rt31 onto rt57, anybodies here?

I thought today would be a good day, actually last night before bed, lol, to detail the Lightning. I worked my ass off hand polishing, waxing, and then following up with some of the brand new Meg's Ultimate Detailer I've been dying to try out since seeing that video. Here's some pics for your...

I seen one in a showroom before, but never on the road (never thought I would either). It looked like a true blue with white stripes. I seen it at the intersection of 519 and 22 in Phillipsburg, NJ. It turned off 519 and headed down 22 east. Anyone's car from here? I forgot how low these things...

Thinking about dropping my soft factory tonneau cover for a color matched hard top. Thought maybe I could get some pics to see what they and different brands/styles looked like on the red to see if I can find one I like. I remember this one I liked allot that was kinda rounded like the L's body...

My friend in his riced out Kia complete with rear wing used to get tickets left and right for his 5% tint. I got pulled over twice with him in two different store parking lots in two different towns in the same day about his tint! All my vehicles have always had 5% tint (illegal for front...

Sup all, I was just wondering if this site is slow for everyone else? I have a 5mbit connection and have no issues with any other sites but this site takes forever to load and most threads I open either timeout or I get a blank page that says database error and email has been sent to the admin...

I posted this over at f150online forums too that I have a single 02 rim that I bought for the brand new tire that was on it. If anyone out there needs a replacement rim for their stock 02 gimmie a hollar... (the rim doesn't match my 03 or I'd keep it)
