I never thought I would be the one saying this but I have to let the L go. Its seems like I just got it and now I have to get rid of it. I'm 21 and still live with Mom and Dad. See, Mom and Dad aren't getting along so that forces me to make a decision. The only way I can afford the L is with...

Does anybody know of a way to seal the tailgate completely. My bed gets dirt all in it. Mainly, because the factory tonneau cover helps hold the dirt in also. I hate to even look in my bed sometimes. I always end up taking the cover off and pressure washing the bed out. When I get a bed rug...

I know how nitrous works but I don't know what affects it has on a motor. Would a 50-75 shot hurt a stock 5.4? I have heard some people say it doesn't hurt anything if used correctly with small amounts. I wouldn' t mind getting a 50 or 75 shot. But NOT if it is going to hurt my motor at all...

I got a digital camera for Christmas so I can finally post some pics of my L. I love this truck. Completely stock, until February. Helix

For those of us running Mobile 1 5w-20 how often does it need changed 3,000 miles or more? I'm getting close to 3,000 so I thought I would ask before I changed it. What about tranny? 10,000 miles? I have 7800 on the L right now. Just drain the trans pan and fill it back up or get a complete...

I meet up with a couple of guys last night with some pretty fast rides. There was an 11 sec nova and mustang 5.0 with a built motor and a holley supercharger on top as well. To cars I wouldn't mess with, even with the L. Anyway, there was a dude there that had a yellow 03 Cobra. I was...

I have heard a lot about these little cars. One thing that got me concerned was when I had a pretty reliable source tell me they could run head to head with any SVT. Helix 2004 Impreza STi WRX

This is my little die cast lightning I bought it for 25 cents. ;-) Helix

I have heard there is a Mustang GT running around here with a Lightning Supercharged 5.4 in it. Think this is possible? Helix

I have been told that the SuperCooler Technology used on the 2004-2005 Lightning will also be avaliable for the previous lightning models. Ford says its a gain of 50 hp. But everyone else is saying it could easy be a gain of 75-100hp. Has anybody heard anything about this for our trucks? For...

My truck is completely stock. If I'm at the strip and something brakes is it still covered by warranty? Helix

I am looking into a KB or maybe a Works sometime in the near future. My lightning is bone stock except for a 3/5 drop. I didn't know if there was anything else I needed to get ready for the KB besides a JDM stage 1 and gauges. May just get a stage 1 and a #4 or #6 and save a little more...

Does anybody see a problem or recommend something different? I am getting close to purchasing a few more mods. I was thinking the JDM stage 1 with a 6lb lower. If I have the money I was thinking the silver bullet exhaust. Being how its cheap and compares pretty close to the bassini according...

This isn't really a kill so I didn't want to post it in the kill section. Just about an hour ago I was driving through town when I started to pass this black camaro in the left lane. It had no badges. I thought it was a V6 until he dropped it to 4th and hit it. You could hear the exhaust and...

Today I was driving back to the house on one of my favorite roads back when I had my crotch rocket.:-D The hardest I have ever drove my L was today. I was running anywhere from 60mph-100mph on this particular road. This road goes up a mountain and back down. Just paved about 6 months ago...
