Back then it was but not today. This truck was completely engineered by
Roush performance utilizing Ford Racing parts. This truck will outrun the
current Cobra (same time) and Camaro. It is supercharged and suspension
from hell when corning. It can corner.... The side effect is keeping the
rear end to the asphalt. Even with the lock up differential, it stills spin
wheels. Low 13's for 1/4 and 5.3 in the 0-60 run.

Wasn't the 1993 Lightning just a set of stickers? Looks like a plain-jane
F150. Times certainly aren't that great, but then again this isn't the new
5.4l supercharged beast...
