> [@jt76](#): > > all depends on what your talking about, do you want to pull stumps out of the ground or drag race?

The lightning isn’t a real truck because I fail to see the “Work ability” of a lighting. That’s what a real truck is about, is actually being able to do “REAL” work. You shoulda bought a cobra. ---

So are you trying to single handily redefine the term “truck” lol That means any small pickup truck like an S10 is not a “real truck” either because they surely don’t offer more “work ability” then a lightning. Owning a truck doesn’t mean you have to haul a ton of dirt in the bed to justify having one. Throwing a couch in the bed or a 4 wheeler is just as useful. ---

I like Lightnings but it is in no way an “all around perfect truck” just because it can haul stuff IMO. I’ve seen Corolla’s and Neon’s towing stuff. A perfect truck could haul stuff on & off the road and still kick ass at the strip. I’d be worried to take a Lightning off flat pavement. ---

lghtemup, you sound like an assclown. and another thing, lightnings suck. 🤣 mostly for the fact that theyre a ford. only good ford truck out there imo is one with a solid axle upfront. ill stick to enjoying my sbc’d s10. nothing like having a old school motor radical enough to make the entire truck and the ground shake at idle and still break the tires loose at half throttle in 3rd gear. ---

Are you really trying to compare your motor swapped s10 to a factory truck? Nothing like old school sbf stroked 351 in a 1st gen lightning to shake the ground at idle and break the tires loose at half throttle in 3rd gear. :walter: ---

And you sound like a faggot with a beer in one hand and a dick in the other. Lightnings suck mostly cause Ford made them? That’s like saying you suck cause your parents made you, it’s a matter of opinion. I bet you have a Dale Earnhardt #3 tattoo on your ass. He sounds like an assclown? Yeah you sound a whole lot less of an assclown tryin to plug your POS into the mix like it’s some sick truck that the almigty Chevy gods built with their own two hands…People like you make me sick ---

All around perfect truck? That’s pushing it. The lightning is an good performance truck. I like ford styling and i love the motor. But for working there are much better trucks out there. If you’re challenging me to a race, I’ll be down next season for sure with whatever I drive. Beware, I have no loyalty to car brand or anything. FYI: I do not drive a cummins. ---
