2001 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning Preview summaryImage

The 2001 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning didn't just rest on its laurels; Ford upgraded the performance truck's engine, boosting its power considerably. The supercharged 5.4 liter Triton V8 was tweaked by the folks in design, enabling it to put out 380 horsepower and 450 ft/lbf of torque.

Modifications to the basic F-150 chassis and suspension gave the 2001 Ford F150 SVT Lightning the agility and responsiveness to handle this much power. The Lightning rode lower than its workhorse sibling, and its 18-inch wheels gave it a street-smart profile. Swooping, curvilinear style and comfort interiors made this one pickup that felt like a sportscar.

The 2001 SVT Lightning came in one configuration, a two-door standard cab short-bed stepside model, and in automatic transmission only. Buyers had a choice of four colors: red, black, white, and silver.

Love the power and handling this truck has and the sporty look compaird to the regular F-150. The only thing I don't like is that you can only have three people in the truck including Yourself. But its a sports truck and not a family car.Dec 21, 2013

I have had 3 lightnings, and this one is by far the best one so far. Lots of great towing ability, racing ability. The only bad part is the gas mileage, but the value is very stable, which helps offset that cost. Sep 17, 2012
