I like the L, but LOVE the Cobra. Keep in touch over here man.

Nice Lightning! Congrats on getting it. I like the Ls, but I hear they are bad on gas. But I guess gas mileage isn't really a thought when we buy vehicles like these. :rockon:

I've always wanted a Lightning, but not enough to get rid of my Cobra... Cool truck!

Enjoy it! At least you made someone a really happy new Cobra owner!

Best of luck with the nice-looking Silver L

glad to see your still in the family...even if your part of the crazy side of the family

it's true that i do miss the cobra sometimes, but i think its more of just the LOOK of the mustang. The L is the first vehicle i have ever owned that ISN'T a mustang, it took some getting used to. The power is amazing in the L, a few ricers would tell you the same Now i can build my 91LX into a true strip car and just haul it to the track!

I've been told that "L's" are only rated to pull 4000 pounds, and you can easily go over this amount with the car and trailer.

 

[SVT1996Cobra]

i believe it is 5000lbs. With an open trailor and a full race car (i.e. stripped out only weighing ~3000lbs max) i should be fine. a buddy of mine hauls cars with his L....

how much faster do you think your L is than the old cobra? I've never even been in a Lightning before so I don't have anything to gauge them on. I'd think it'd be a good race between an L and a geared 96-98 cobra.

it would be a good race between a stock L and a geared cobra from a dig, from a roll the cobra would win. The torque is the feeling i was missing in the cobra, now i have it again.

my only problem so far is i keep reaching for a shifter! lol

Its a trade I would make also. Had one at work again, they are awesome machines.
