I went to look at a couple of Lightnings and yes they look great on the outside but the build quality was woeful. it looked like they threw the interior in the cab from a distance that and 12 MPG on a good day.
whilst in the USA a few years back I went into a dealers who had a number on the forecourt. Salesman came out and we had a chat I was looking at one F150 Lightning in particular.... "Oh thats the owners truck sir it's been tricked out to 600BHP!!!, I'll get the keys and let you hear it" I'm surprised you never heard it turn over in the UK!!

well it made me laugh

It looks like it could be more cost effective than using a private car at 25p/mile or a 120g green car. Why is green cheaper than any other colour anyway?

Just buy a proper car and pay mileage. A lot nicer than rough old pickup.

When people see you driving an International® MXT™, they don't forget it. They look up from their tricked out SUVs, and realize they don’t have the coolest ride on the street anymore. They're even more jealous when you press your foot down and let the force of 300 horsepower leave them in awe of what they just witnessed.
And while you’re savoring all the attention, you'll be relishing in the lush comfort of the spacious interior. Features like touch-screen CD/DVD radio, GPS navigation, ivory-faced sport gauges and leather seats make you question whether it looks better from the inside or from the street.
Starting at $125,000 the MXT Limited will be available in the Summer of 2007
