There was an SRT-10 Quad Cab on Ebay with the Venom kit. It was turning 800hp, and the 1/4 mile time on 'er was in the mid 10 second range. But...if I was to put that much into the truck to get that performance, I would probably just opt for the Viper. But then again.....some people prefer trucks.
Best as always.

A quad cab SRT=10 will NOT beat a Lightning. The vast majority of SRT-10's are turning mid thirteens with good drivers. The only one that was even near stock that broke into the 12's had a few bolt-ons, weight reduction, AND a professional Viper driver behind the wheel. The fact is, they are slow cosidering what their specs say. I fear none, except highly modded ones. Quad cab's are running mid to high 13's. They aren't that much slower than the reg cabs. The automatic in the quad cab makes it much easier to drive and more consistent. Still, they are nothing to be afraid of in a Lightning, especially with a pulley and chip.

The lighning will go up in price because:
1. Different motor that is upward of 550 h.p.
2. Need a stronger tranny for this, and the rest of the drivetrain to accomany the increased torque
3. won't come out for another couple of years
4. the shelby version of the mustang is going to increase over $5000 over the cobra

Are you saying that they don't even make a regular cab F150 any more???? That is wrong. They still make a ton of them. The new ones all have the quad doors, but that is for easy access to the space behind the seat.
