Horsepower: 380
Estimated torque: 509 lb.-ft. @ 5,500 rpm
What the automaker says: "The SVT F-150 Lightning concept features a six-speed manual transmission, independent rear suspension and a 500-horsepower supercharged V-8. It is a powerful combination aimed at extending SVT Lightning's supremacy into the future. Since it was introduced in 1993, the Ford SVT F-150 Lightning has been the undisputed sport truck king, making a name for itself as the "World's Fastest Production Pickup." Ten years later, competitors are finally bringing Lightning imitators to market. John Coletti, director, SVT Programs, welcomes the challenge."

 

Not a huge truck guy, but that is pretty nice...

 

Can you say ewwww. I like the 93-95s the best. 5.4 is junk.

 

95 5.8L- 240hp
5.4 S/c - 500hp (concept now but i'm sure it'll see production)

Gimme the 5.4. More then double the Hp is always good. And finally a shifter to bang your own 6 gears with instead of the auto. I like it.

 

I'm not an SUV or Truck person - but I'll say it looks not bad at all. Those sharp creases which I hate on cars (like the CTS, Nissan cars etc) look fine on the Lightning - quite aggressive and looks like it means business. And man, does it sit low to the ground in those pics!!
