Sold the C5
Hi everyone,
Sold my C5 and bought an 04 Lightning. I know, I'm a traitor. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who answered my questions and provided advice during my 3 year ownership. This by far is the best automotive site on the web.
If you see a grey Lightning in the Chicago area throw me a wave.

I was thinking about getting me a Lightning but decided against due to the rising prices of gasoline. The L is a very cool truck and can be made to go very fast/ Good luck with your new ride!

I've had two F150's and an Expedition... Loved them all but they are no Vette... The vette will always be a part of our family but sure, the body style may differ in years to come... just not as much as yours has!! 
A Lighting is a nice truck...VERY nice.
Congrats...

I understand its hard to do. I just sold my car to a guy in Montana. Great guy. I have a Ford truck. You will like yours. Lightings are kick butt, they in a little more boost and plant your foot.
