Does anyone know how much quicker this Lightning will be compared to the previous fastest factory Ford truck? I thought I heard 0-60 in 4.4 for the new Lightning. I think the 2004 Lightning was something like 5 seconds, maybe a little slower.

That could be right. However, given Ford's history of these reveals, everything they say will be a "targeted" value.

Is it true that the battery for this thing weighs about 1,500lbs.?!?!?
I heard that from a coworker today. Wasn't sure if true.

power torque weight 1/4 mile time? 4x4 option, stick shift option?

Wait the lightning is not a performance line street truck? What the Hell?!?!!? First they ruin the mustang name now they ruin the lightning name? At least they got the Bronco right, if they ever build them...this is currently debatable!

this is the lamest ****ing shit of an intro for how much theyve been pumping it up. I'd rather take a stick in the eye than listen to most of these people so far.

IMHO they just framed it all wrong to any performance person calling it a lightning, expectations set completely wrong
