This Lightning is too nice for words to describe. This is a true collectors vehicle.
It was purchased by a collector in NH from a collector in TX. I have a copy of the Texas title and the TX inspection stickers I left on the windshield. (I Like them)
All bone stock. No lowered suspension shackles, no after market cold air air filter, no higher boost lower pulley not even a louder exhaust. All Original virgin truck.
You know all the basics, here are the extras from the factory. Original rubber bottom bed liner, original soft tonneau cover (looks like new) factory applied under coat which was done prior to final assembly of the front and rear fenders - a very rare option for the Lightning.The front bumper has never been drilled at the factory dimpled location sights for the front license plate. When I bought it in the summer of 2012 I had the clear stone guard front end protection film applied and I really like it. I intended to drive it so it was the best solution to protecting the paint from rocks etc and still look great. It can be removed.
There are no door dings, no bumper marks from touching other car bumpers, parking lot fences etc. The wheels are flawless with the original F1 tires and have never been off the truck. No marks on the wheels or lug nuts from wrench etc. Interior is perfect as it should be with 10K miles. My seats remain covered at all times unless parked at a Cruise Night for display. Non smoking environment as well. No food, soda or coffee are ever allowed in my truck! Much to my wife's dismay!
I have taken it on a 600 mile round trip to NJ and the rest of the time it is taken to a Cruise Night or a leisure scenic New England ride. Truck looks, runs and drives perfectly.
I hate to sell it, so here is my short reason for selling.
Two years ago I bought a 2001 Lightning with high mileage. It had the usual mods running about 400 hp. I loved it, but the underneath was rotted. It was obviously used in the New England winters with our salted roads. Too bad as it was otherwise a nice truck. Faced with a choice of extensive rust repairs to a 140K miles truck or replacing it, I chose to replace it. I was not looking for a perfect truck, just one not rusted out with maybe 50-90K miles would have been fine. I found this truck and was in love even though it was a few grand more than i was looking to spend, the newness of it was worth it. I bought it with intentions of doing the usual modifications to bring it up in the 400-420 HP range. I now feel as though the truck is too nice for me to start making modifications to. In addition, it is so nice that I am nervous driving it. So I will sell it and replace it with a higher mileage one with no rust and maybe already fitted with mods. Then I won't feel guilty about altering this perfect virgin and won't be nervous driving a high mileage truck. That being said, I will take your higher mileage Red or maybe white Lightning in trade. Any year second generation model, stock or mods OK. No uncared for trucks in trade.
Clear Mass. title in hand as I paid cash for it. You are welcomed to come here or send someone here to inspect the truck prior to bidding or even after you bought it. If it is not what I say, you can back out of the sale. This truck was always garaged and babied. It is currently stored for the winter in a heated facility with three, yes three fitted covers on it. When warm weather is here I keep it in my yard under cover. If I drive it as soon as I pull in the yard I pull the cover from the back of the truck and put the cover on before I do anything else. A bit anal perhaps, but I paid a lot for a very nice truck. I intend to keep it nice. Not taken out in rain or driven after first snow fall so it is never exposed to salt, not even dry dusty salt.
Payment in cash preferred. Certified bank check drawn on Bank of America or other bank with branch in Massachusetts. Checks must be cashed by me and cleared prior to truck leaving. If shipping, you must make the arrangements. I prefer to have you come here with cash, see it, drive it and pay for it so we are both happy with the deal. 978-632-7005 days.

Ford Explorer Jackson Pollock Edition results in trip to hospital
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Among the many useful pieces of driving advice we've taken to heart over the years, "Safely secure all cargo" is etched pretty high on our personal stone tablets. We've had a couple of frustrating moments over the years (numerous wonky cupholders and too-tall lidded cups; a radar detector that released its suction cups and dashed itself below the dashboard, etc.), but never anything like the scene above.
These photos above come courtesy of the Washington State Patrol, and they show the unfortunate aftermath of a driver, his dog, and his Ford Explorer after it crashed near the town of Belfair last week. According to reports, the man was schlepping five-gallon containers of paint inside his vehicle when he was involved in an unexplained accident. It's not clear what triggered the crash, but the impromptu abstract painting covered the whole of the interior, including the driver and his faithful companion.
The man was transported to a local hospital for minor injuries, and his dog was cleaned and later taken to a humane society.
Weekly Recap: Volvo buys Polestar, makes performance a priority
Sat, Jul 18 2015Volvo is taking its performance business in-house, and the Swedish carmaker announced Tuesday that it bought tuning company Polestar, which has long been known for producing sporty Volvos. The move allows Volvo to ramp up its performance business, and it plans to increase Polestar-branded vehicle sales to 1,000 to 1,500 annually, up from the 750 total projected for this year. The companies have been working together on motorsports projects since 1996. Financial terms of the sale were not released, and Polestar workers will move over to Volvo. Former Polestar owner Christian Dahl will keep control of the Polestar racing team and operate it under a new name. In addition to sales volume, Volvo has ambitious plans for other parts of Polestar, including its aftermarket business. Volvo also said it will use its twin-engine hybrid technology for Polestar models in the future, though specifics and timing were not revealed. Meanwhile, Volvo announced it will offer a run of 265 total Polestars in the United States for the 2016 model year, with S60 and V60s available. "Driving a Volvo Polestar is a special experience. We have decided to bring this experience to more Volvo drivers, placing the full resources of Volvo behind the development of Polestar as the model name for our high performance cars," Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson said in a statement. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, get nose jobs Automakers tend to refer to light updates as 'facelifts,' and that's exactly what Chevy gave the 2016 Silverado and GMC Sierra. Chevy slightly changed the front end of the truck. Using the one photo released of the new Z71 model as a guide, we can see that the headlights went from a stacked vertical design to single bulbs, and they are set on top of LED running lights. The grille has more body-colored elements instead of shiny metal, and the hood has a new line running down the middle (look really closely). The design theme will be similar across the portfolio, though materials and details will vary, a spokesman said. Some models, like the High Country and LTZ will have more chrome, and the LEDs are only for the upper trims. Chevy also said it will use the eight-speed automatic transmission on more versions of the Silverado, and it updated the MyLink feature to support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
