It felt nice to have the best looking truck in the neighborhood, or at least on the block (well, I KNOW it was the nicest one on the property) for a little while. Went for a ride with my landlord to pick up his brand new Lightning at the dealership... Man does that thing fly. Sounds nice too!

The Lightning did come with a hitch receiver, and its actually rated to tow 5000# (or maybe more?). I was a little surprised by that. In contrast, the Dodge SRT10 is not rated to tow anything.

But let's not turn this into a Lightning vs. SRT10 thread. I'll just reiterate that I'm perfectly happy with my F350, and to me it still is the nicest truck in my area. And, if I need to go off-road, I can do that, too!
