Something about a 5.4 Triton ? Desert Edition, just how hot IS this rod ?
Faster than a Lightening ?

Not sure if I could ever consider posting a ford pickup inline with the theme of this thread.

Looks like an early - mid 2000's truck. Faster than a Lightning, No.
Not a Ford guy, so don't know how a Stage 3 truck (rare ?) vs a Lightning would do.

Goodbye Jaguar.

My mom had a XJ12C which, unlike this monstrosity, was a lovely car.

And trunk space and interior space sucks!

2028 Jaguar Type 01 Is the Brand’s First EV, and It’s a Design-Led Sedan That Courts Controversy

Formosa Hot Rod Reunion Roll Call & Jaw-Dropping Rides
I'll be camping at Formosa Dragway all weekend for the Hot Rod Reunion, Friday through Sunday.
What cars are you looking forward to seeing that still make your jaw drop? We know the nitro cars are a given.
If you're going to be there, hit me up. Always cool to meet fellow forum members at the track.
