according to an inside source at SVT ford gave them the option of building either a cobra or a lightning. they chose to develop the cobra. they had to make the call because there was a new chassis for both the f150 and the mustang at the same time and it would cost too much, according to ford, not SVT, to develop both simultaniously (sp).

Well first off, no one said the lightening is dead or gone forever. I would say you will see it at some point. do you really think they will let dodge just take their coveted fastest truck in the world title that easy!

so the big L is gone forever!!!!!!! ?????????????????????
Honestly how is this happening, the past few years have been the best years ever and it looked like it would only get better would shelby comeing back and finally a new mustang....really what gives.... I honestly think we should just be patient, and to who ever said knowing ford....yes...well knowing ford=first on race day, i bet ford will take the crown back, also the srt pickup should not even count because they just stole the viper engine anyway
