Yeah it's really not anything so special, I would but a termi way before that thing. I'd take the lightning first actually.

You don't want that 2000 lightning. They had issues with plugs blowing out the heads with them. I'd rather have the 03 with more miles.

I almost bought one instead of my GT, but I flat out just can't afford the fuel. One day I WILL own one.

Yeah, so did our Mustangs. My truck has that same issue. Because of the position of the 5.4L water will drip right into the plug well if your weather stripping on the hood is bad and corrode the plug threads. Maintain your truck and you won't have an issue. I have 184k on mine all original drive train and everything. Torque the plugs, keep her clean, take care of her and she'll take care of you. I'd buy a Lightning in a heartbeat, and if I blew the engine to pieces, I'd build the hell out of it, who cares haha.

Maybe I'll get flamed here, but I don't care. I don't really like the New Edge saleens. They look ricey to me. Funky a$$ front bumper and side scoops....not my cup of tea and deff not for that price listed.
