The new F150 Lightning will be as much a ‘Lightning’ as the Mach E is a ‘Mustang’.....
As both a Lightning and Mustang owner I’m dumbfounded.
The Mach E is more like the infamous Aztek.

Is it just me or is nitro making a bit of a popularity come back? I know the electrics are superior in every measurable way but I've been seeing more nitros pop up lately.I’m in the RC industry and the same thing happened to us. Although there is still Nitro cars most everything has gone electric. Including planes and boats.
It’s pretty steady, mostly 1/8 scale buggy and Trucks. The last Nitro Challenge had like 700 entries.Is it just me or is nitro making a bit of a popularity come back? I know the electrics are superior in every measurable way but I've been seeing more nitros pop up lately.
POST.OF.THE.WEEK!Meanwhile at FCA...
Want a big muscle car? How about we call it the Challenger? Is it true to form? You tell me. We literally just copied the 70s one and rounded off some edges. And it still has a big V8. Not only that, but we put a ****ing supercharger on it. Now it makes more than twice the power it used to. Not enough for you? How about a Charger? Same powerplant. Doesn't look like the old one, and we added an extra set of doors. Why? Because **** you. Now you can run 10's taking your family to church. Or a bunch of whores. We're FCA, we don't give a shit. See you in hell! That's why we call it the Hellcat. Got a problem with it? Go buy some pansy ass car you plug into a wall, but you'll have to unplug your vibrator first.

Yep! And drag racing is getting huge,And they absolutely demolish a nitro car in every single aspect. Hate to say it but nitro is flat shit compared to a proper brushless setup. You dont see nitro cars going 100+mph without MAJOR work done to them.
Now you can buy a 100mph brushless car in a box(i hate RTR with a passion) which is mind blowing.
Im all for the new Lightning. I think a RCSB, aluminum bodied, dual motor truck would be quite sick. Think 4300lbs and 550+hp with a 350mile range.
And this thing is going to wallop a Gen 2 Lightning. Hate to say it but the old Lightning isnt fast these days. A stock Explorer ST is on par with what i ran in my 2002 Lightning at the drag strip. Add in the crazy torque of a dual motor EV and its game over for the old brute.

It'll probably be just as ugly as the new Bronco as well. What an ugly vehicle.After the Nightmare with the Bronco I’ll believe it when I see it.
LOL...................................... What are you going to tow the batteries to get to that weight. Add 2,000-3,000 lbs to that number.
Yeah I saw a red one the other day. Butt ugly and way smaller than I thought it would be.It'll probably be just as ugly as the new Bronco as well. What an ugly vehicle.
What you saw isnt the new Bronco, likely the Bronco Sport which doesn't countYeah I saw a red one the other day. Butt ugly and way smaller than I thought it would be.
Hard pass for me.Yeah I saw a red one the other day. Butt ugly and way smaller than I thought it would be.
A quote from the movie Tommy Boy comes to mind.What you saw isnt the new Bronco, likely the Bronco Sport which doesn't count
Never seen it. So not sure what this reply is supposed to be lol.A quote from the movie Tommy Boy comes to mind.
No it was a sport, I was very excited about the new Bronco mainly because apparently it can be flat towed and I’m a year away from retirement. It would have been the perfect vehicle for towing behind the motor home. But they took to long so I got a Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk instead.Never seen it. So not sure what this reply is supposed to be lol.
So are you 100% sure you saw the real new Bronco?
