So the guy stirred up a sh#tstorm on the Lightning Forum? I guess I don't see why you're posting it here, unless you're just wanting to stir up one here, or just see if you can? Personally I think that the guy's an idiot, spending extra money for a nice Lightning when all he really wants is a Gen 1 chassis and driveline, and he's going to change out or modify the driveline anyway? If he's truly on a budget why not buy a cheap Gen1 F150, add a crate engine and a crate tranny and be done? Seems to me his elevator doesn't make it quite to the top, but then if that's what he wants to do it's his money. If we really had a reason to be concerned we'd be members over on the Lightning Forum, giving him crap about it, right? I guess I don't see the point in discussing it on another forum?
