When I was 16 my parents offered to buy me a vehicle and asked me what I wanted. I requested an F150 Lightning and my parents knew what an F150 was and went shopping for a vehicle for a teen (me). When the dealership informed them it had a supercharged V8 with a bit too much power, I got a bit of a talkin' to when they were informed what this truck was. Needless to say, I did not get an F150 lightning as a first vehicle.

When this truck launched, it was an awesome time to be a Ford dealer. We had Lightning, we had Cobra and we even had the little SVT Focus. People would grab this truck and slap underdrive pulleys on them, add a Johnny Lightning intake, maybe do a tune and a few weeks later they'd have a hole in the bottom of the block. As time went on, it was harder than hell to find one that hadn't been flogged to death. This example is a damned time machine and I'm jealous that you bought it. What a fun truck to have!

He normally took one of his more high dollar vehicles off the lot and drove new cars home everyday. He brought this exact truck home one night and it was the coolest thing. It had nitrous and everything. Needless to say we well he got a speeding ticket that night when I told him I wanted to see how fast it was. 😂

Seeing the kid jump into Hoovies car at the end reminded me of one time at a car dealership I used to work at. I was what they called a Service Porter up on the Service Drive. I was told to jump start a customers Cadillac sedan that had been brought in and was getting ready to remove the cover to the trunk release (electric but had a outside covered key) and discovered the back doors were unlocked, the front were electric. I could just get in the back seat and reach over to pop the drivers door. The ground was wet and I didn't want to have to clean my wet shoe prints off the rear seats so I took off my shoes to avoid making a mess.

If you are comfortable at all with soldering, you can fix the odometer very easily by resoldering one or two points on the circuit board. Plenty of KZbin videos available on fixing that. The compass/thermometer in the upper center console has a habit of going out too, but also a very easy soldering fix. Congrats on joining the Lightning club.

He finally sold it (the rwd was not too useful on greasy boat ramps and he did a lot of fishing). The one rusty place I found was the rad support, which I noticed was very bad when I was underneath trying to fix one of the lower fog lights. It was a cool truck and always sat so right.

Looks like an upgraded heat exchanger at 15:55. Much larger and thicker than stock which is really nice to see. This truck overall looks like a great deal for $15k. Rust is pretty minimal and it seems to run well. Would be awesome to see a smaller pulley, bigger injectors, and a tune on it. A tune would definitely fix the falling on its face that occurs with these good old 4r100's have in their stock form.

Hi hoover, I am a huge fan of you and I've been watching your videos for years and years, never missed one. We need to see you bond more with the cars. We usually see you buying the car, then the wizard then selling it. It's been like that for almost 2 years. What happened to the early Mercedes story's or your grandfather's car? Or even the Apollo. I loved to see the same cars a little bit from time to time. Love you hoovie hope you take this message in a good way❤

I worked at a ford dealer in San Diego and got to drive a manual version of one of these. I guess it was made specifically for some rich footballer that played for San Diego. Beast of a car but you could tell the transmission definitely came out of a commercial truck, quite crude and notchy.

The horse power bump actually came in 2001,it also added 3:73 gears,bilstein shocks,larger throttle body. I test drove a 2000 before buying my 2001,it was a noticeable difference in acceleration, ride,handling. I still have that 01 with 10k miles on it,never driven in rain and always stored indoors. It still looks new,and even retained the new car smell. I ordered an extra set of floor mats and 4 wheels when I bought it,those are still in my garage attic along with about every piece of literature available back then.

Once they're modified they're all basically the same. Kind of like the 07-12 gt500 the 07-09 makes same power as 10-12 once they're modified the same even though the later cars came with more power and better gearing factory.

Make sure the intercooler isn’t OEM or keep an eye on it! The early year ones would develop a leak and fill the turkey pan (lower intake), assuming it didn’t get sucked into the engine.

I bought one of these new in Miami in 2004. It was black and extremely inconvenient. Two small bucket seats with no extra room. Couldn't even get comfortable with my girlfriend because of the center console. The engine was solid, but the front end started to give up after two years. Needed tie rods and such... I got the Borla exhaust, timing chip, and blower pulley to make over 400 HP and since I lived in Key West and fished for a living, it was the fastest fish truck on the island. ... And I never had a Miata pull away from me! 😂

That’s a very nice Ford F-150 Lightning Tyler! I like this way more than the electric F-150. Something about a supercharged v-8 and sporty exhaust excites me! You saw probably a 2020ish CaseIH Magnum Rowtrac tractor and a large corn planter when driving.
