New Roush Nightmare The Next Lightning?

[05 Roush]

Based on the information from Roush, the Nitemare will be a limited run of F-150 standard cab 4x2 with intercooled Roushcharger.

Figuring out the math, 445 bhp/500 lb-ft tq @ 4700 lbs and 3.73 gearing could result in mid 13 second times.

I just wish Ford would put a 5.5' shorty bed on F-150 standard cabs and the thing would be a rocketship.

Very interesting but I don't see how that truck could weigh the same as a L. I had a 04 F-150 rcsb and they feel like they weigh twice as much. I have heard they are at least 600 lbs over a L. Just a much bigger truck. Good to see that someone has picked up where SVT dumped the L. Only 100 produced though. Hard to get and I am sure there will be markups.

That's true. Markup is going to be high. The weight of an '03 Lightning is nearly identical to that of a Nitemare.
