Its a Sexy Super Duper Souped up Silver 2 door F150 SVT Lightning with a SuperCharged 5.4 liter V8 with 380 HP. Its Got great two tone interior a little worn but not bad at all. It can do the 1/2 mile in the high twelves. the only thing i dont like about it is that it does not run yet. (Its Still Wrecked)

Pros — Its SuperCharged
Cons — Dont run

You can haul stuff, or you can haul ass, your choice.  Either one would be done well with this truck, all around it has the BEST fuel economy of all my cars, average 24mpg both city and highway.

Pros — Great presence, acceleration, handling, sound
Cons — Nobody wants to race it.

I traded my Cobra Mustang for this vehicle. I thought "it's a truck" and I can deal with it not
being a Mustang. No...it's a Mustang with a bed on it. The supercharger make beautiful
noises. Seriously fast and great to drive on trips. Add some more boost and it's almost the
most fun you can have with your clothes on.

Pros — Boost! Most people don't know what it is, until you blow them away.
Cons — To heavy of a right foot can have mileage in the single digits. Tires cost a fortune!!!

good over all, gas is 12.9 city and 15.9 highway- (better then the normal 5.4 f-150)

Pros — fast truck and can still tow a good size trailer!
Cons — very hard to work on...

I,ve owned this truck for 5 1/2 years and it is easily the best vehicle I've ever owned. Driving it still puts a smile on my face. It has been back to the dealership only one time for unscheduled maintenance, and that was the cruise control recall.
