what say you, VX peeps?

Sounds like you should buy this Lightning as long as there is enough left in the budget to buy something nice for Mrs Barker, too!
I know that makes it seem like I'm a sweet, sensitive gentleman. In reality, I'm just a big fan of everybody keeping their freakin' pie-holes shut. (Disclaimer: all advice I give is from the viewpoint of an unmarried loser.)

I've always had a thing for the Lightnings as well, especially the 2nd gen ones. I agree that is a nice truck but I wouldn't trade a VX for it. For folks that know what a lightning is, it has meaning. To everybody else, it's just a 4x4. The VX is always going to be unique whether you know anything about them or not.

I gotta say I often have to shake my head at remarks from VXers. I ain't no Ford guy, cuz I don't like the fire danger. However, this is a nice looking, rare, (and as far as I know) one-off ride! Who gives a crap what other people think you are driving!? You know what this truck is - everyone else including Matt Lauer can SUCK IT! If wifey likes the VX so much I'd say you have an excuse to have both! But... I'm like Rick.

Like I said, sell the SVO, make the Lightning fast, and you have your fast ride again (either vehicle will be admired by the Ford crowd) plus be able to haul stuff. AND you could offroad it if ya wanted lol

Well I just got the new ECU that I've been waiting on since last Nov. for the SVO so I'll just have a few weeks with it if I sold it. I'd really like to have the SVO running perfect before I ever put it up for sale. Besides, this guy hasn't responded to my request for more info yet and he was on the verge of deployment so it may be a little to late.

Ya usually you shouldn't jump on things when you find em' like this, you regret it later. I'm guilty of it too.
