Well in the looks department there is some appeal, but at a portly 4400lbs, as one mag reported, it will need some serious HP. So for the price and probably anemic performance, it's no challenge for the Lightning. I myself am not a Ford guy , but did take a new lightning for a test ride and was VERY impressed. I smell an overpriced, portly, anemic dud coming. <img src="gr_sad.gif" border="0">

I agree, GM always to fall flat (using the stock 5.3l, etc.) Reminds me of the 454SS (no offense to current owners), but IMO a Fuel Injected 454 should have put out a lot more HP than it did in that truck.</strong><hr></blockquote>
The 454SS definitely had low hp, but had gobs of low end torque.
