Is it worth it?

Hi all! I'm looking to purchase a low mileage Lightning '03 or '04, within the next 6 months or so. I've always wanted one and now I'm in a position to afford one. I just want to know if they are as fast as everyone says they are? Is it worth the money? I'm hoping it will pin me to the seat upon acceleration. I also like the fact that they are kind of a sleeper. Not everyone knows what they are and they look kind of like a normal f-150. thanks.

In my opinion,,,it's worth every penny!!!
With a few extras,,like a pulley swap you can make it VERY FAST.

I put a Lightning motor in my Supercrew.
And if I had the money,,I would get an L and put a cage in it,,,lol.
