Looks like he's telling the truth






In all seriousness, I have NOTHING against JDM. I just like messing with photoshop.

It came down the assembly line and Roush wound up doing the convertor and trans swap and some suspension modifications.

I checked with my Ford sources and it turns out this is possible. Some export programs (particularly those initiated by a dealer) involve some unusual agreements. I'll check with my Roush contacts, they should know something. I'd also happily ask JDM's contact at Livonia but I have a feeling that name's a secret.

Bottom Line is who cares.....

Don if your happy and it works for you great you and your truck are a great asset to the comunity.

For the Gregg and Jim war thats there problem and people are still going to buy JDM stuff and Factory Tech stuff so let them continue to hate one another and for us not have to read 10 pages to see if someone is a liar or not.
The bottom line in all of this is Don and his truck he's the only one who has to be happy all of us who might want the same just going to have to go another route maybe.

Slick

Bottom line is that this is NOT a production piece and not available to the lightning community.

well... Guess I spend the big bucks

It's not, unless of course you can come out of no where and make a jab at somebody.

The BS around here is unbelievable. Ford only built 28,181 Lightnings between 1999 and 2004 and JDM have sold 6000 caged pullies, have 2000 of their trucks running in the 11's. Gregg last year was talking about 3000 FTVB's sold and in just a year its now 10,000.

Like my dad used to say: "If bullshi*t was music, these guys would be a brass ban..."

All I can say is more and more these days, I take extra caution to spend my money with ethical companies who respect their employees and their customers. And that is my final word and my money does the talking.
