You got rid of the big red truck then? Or do I have you confused with someone else? Those are very nice trucks. Gotta be hard on the wallet for gas though… 5.4 Liters thats a big displacement. Cheers! -Niann ---

I totalled the red truck, I’ve been through quite a few vehicles. . . .and no, I didn’t crash all of them, I get bored easily. Jeeps, cars, and trucks. ---

That one isn’t mine, kit was asking about trucks, so I showed her my favorite. My Ford Lightning is in the works. I am gonna have 22" chrome wheels, with a Corvette type racing tire (low profile). Functional ram air hood. A one inch lowering shackle in the front and a two inch in the rear. With 22" I won’t have to lower it very much. I won’t do much to the engine, but I will upgrade to a Borla Exhaust and add a jet programmer module. I don’t like the Ford Fuel Injection intake so I will get an upgraded aftermarket one. I have no clue about the interior yet. I pay for the upgrades myself, I get great cost prices through my company and I do a lot of labor at our shop so I save a lot of money. Paint job is the only thing that will cost me. I have to throw on a bed cover and cut out the back to fit my subwoofers and amps. It is a sponsored vehicle so I will have to show it, mostly in L.A. Working about 40 hours a week as a full time student just to pay for vehicle mods. I never buy myself anything besides upgrades for my truck. ---

Hehe… 🙂 Well, like I said I don’t know much about trucks… Sports and performance cars are more my thing, but those look pretty \*\*\*\* cool, Dan. 🙂 Out of curiosity, what’s the 0 - 60 time on one of those? I think the MG is about 6.5 seconds… ---

The Ford Lightning is a Supercharged 5.4L V8 with enough torque to pull at least 5 seconds without upgrades. ---

Here are pics of my truck. It is a 2000 GMC Sierra XLT. The best upgrade I have in it right now is my 4 10in Memphis Audio subs being pushed by a MMat 700x1 Watt Amp (that’s 700wats RMS, it peaks about 1200) Also, I’ve got a Interfire 700 watt amp pushing my mids and highs. Some other upgrades include indiglo dials, Gaylord tonneau cover, Line-X Spray-in Bedline, Dual outlet Flowmasters (make my truck sound badass). I love my baby. ![](http://www.kernlearn.net/Images/Truck1.jpg) ![](http://www.kernlearn.net/Images/Truck2.jpg) ---

5 seconds? Not bad at all considering the size of that thing… 5.4 litres though, that must just eat petrol like there’s no tomorrow…? OK, I’ve uploaded a pic of the car that I took at the dealers yesterday.
