Default F150 Lightning

My wife has a CRV. It is completely paid off and we are looking at unloading it. I know...it's paid off...and only has 40k miles...I KNOW!! She wants a lightning....I can't really disagree with that. It seems like a good idea to me. Any opinions? People who have owned them? A good lightning board? Good years? Years to avoid? common problems? Thanks in advance.

Check out Modular Fords . In my opinion the best SVT forum out there.

Very cool that your wife wants a Bolt. It was either an S or a Lightning when we were looking. Wife would only agree with the S.
Two good Lightning sites..........

FYI if you want the Lightning engine with 4 seats, get the Harley Davidson F150. IMO, looks just as good and you should be able to get a good price on one now that the new F150's are here.

Yep, same engine and supercharger. Just de-tuned a little in the power dept to somewhere around 320 or so. But with all the aftermarket bolt on's available, within no time and minimal $$ you could have more power than a stock Lightning.
