    Ummm...where the **** is my truck?

    Ok, so I stayed at my lady's apartment in South Beach last night and we had a wonderful time! We walked to the beach and checked out the moon and stars, stopped along the way and picked up some new clothes for the Less Than Jake concert tonight, ultimately stopping at a little sidewalk cafe...

    Carfax Information please?

    Hi, I'm looking around for alternatives to the gas guzzling Lightning and came across a Nissan 350Z Touring model that seems pretty nice. Can someone please run the vin for me on Carfax? I want to make sure it wasn't traded in due to an accident. Thank you, JN1AZ34D94T152536 - Jake

    Lightning for sale: Need advice

    Hey guys. I just learned my property taxes on my townhouse doubled this year, resulting in a surprising $300.00 per month jump in my automatically deducted mortage payment with Chase Finance. Add to this my association fees going up $70.00 per month, my credit cards being maxed out, and me being...

    The time has come to say farewell...

    Well, I have thought about this for two weeks, and it's becoming obvious I have to sell my baby. Financial concerns, high balance credit cards, huge fuel bills per week ( Drive over 400 miles per week), and overall costs force me to sell her. I will create an ad on Auto Trader later on today...

    Gas prices may force the sale of my Lightning!

    I know, I know, not another GAS MILEAGE thread, but with prices expected to peak at around 3.00 for regular this summer, I don't think I can hang on to the L. She's a daily driver. Driving over 400 miles per week not including weekend driving, I'm spending between $60-75.00 per week and it's...

    Lightning Struck: Ford decides to shelve SVT Lightning pickup

    This sucks man. Oh well...I hope they revive it. Part of me thinks this is a marketing ploy by Ford to sell the rest of the 04 Lightnings, but who knows. http://www.autoweek.com/news.cms?newsId=101065

    Lightning is down, roommate splits with the cash!

    So, last night I had my mother's Volvo, due to dropping her off at the Airport for her trip to Canada to visit her dying friend with stomach cancer. I get the mom's house, park the car, get in the Lightning, and poof, windows don't work, lights don't work, stereo won't work. So I'm like, ok...

    Foose Spank 5's

    I plan to purchase wheels soon. I searched through all the threads specific to wheels, foose, and other criteria, but my question wasn't answered. I like the Foose Spank 5's. They appear to be good quality, bling factor is definitely there, and they appear well made. The question is...
