Is there a date set for production the 3rd Gen Lightnings yet?
Hey Guys im going to uti in chicago right now and had a chance to hit up the auto show here and spent alot of time looking at the ford section there and i got to talking with one of the engineers about alot to stuff ford is putting out and he asked what i drive and i told him a dark shadow gray 03 lightning and he smiled alittle and i asked what he was laughing about. he didnt say anything for a few mins and i asked him is ford bringing back the lightning. he told me to wait till next yrs show to find out. soooo maybe just maybe there bringing it to the autoshow next yr hope u guys like the info.
Not what i heard :gl:
The word i heard was that SVT does not want to bring back the lightning because a 4x4 offroad truck applies to more people and brings in more buyers from many more regions. :nono:
That sounds like Ford, not giving a sh!t about their loyal (almost cult-like) customers, and just concentrating on how MANY sales they can rack up. One thing is for sure, as long as there is a truck with an SVT badge on it other than the Lightning--there won't be a Lightning. It doesn't make sence to compete within your own company.
it wouldn't be competition.. more like another option for potential buyers.. for example v6 - v8 - shelby mustangs?
