I recently got a raise and i am in the market for a new vehicle. I was thinking about getting a SVT lightning. I would like to stay in the truck or SUV market though. What do guys think and if not a lightning what do you suggest?

dodge srt-10 or the new chevy silverado ss...both are twice the truck as the lightning imo

the srt10 and the chev ss are both vaporware at this moment , you can actually buy a ightning [img]smile.gif[/img]

as much as I'm not a ford man............the lightning is cool, I'd buy one [img]smile.gif[/img]

if your into dodge's you could pick up a hemi equipt truck and throw a kennebell super charger on it..........

I know the owner of a SVT dealer, close friends with him..

I could swing you a deal if your willing to pick it up in winnipeg?

lightnings rule!!

if you have any questions about them check this place out, and theres a alberta chapter too.

yeah the lightnings are sweet trucks. are they 4x4's though? i heard that they were really poor in the winter so I assumed they were just 2wd. my dad has a 2000 F-150 w/ a 5.4L V8, its like walking on ice when its in 2wd on snowy days, but 4wd it will go anywhere. so if you need this truck for winter i'd reccommend the dodge with the hemi if the lightning isn't a 4x4.

the lightning is a sport truck .........and since 4x4 means more weight (slower) and doesn't handle any where near as good as a 2wd truck the lightning is 2wd .....

but yeah the super wide sport tires would suck in the winter .......I wouldn't winter drive a lightning anyways .......you can always find some cheap beater to do that [img]smile.gif[/img]

theres a guy in town that uses his lightning for winter.. it was cheaper for him to buy brand new rims and winter tires then get winter tires for his 18' rims..

put in some wight and some good tires and it would be bearable.. but not smart.. there pretty bad azz
