The director of Ford's Special Vehicle Team (SVT) steadfastly denied that the Lightning pickup has been killed.

John Coletti said some media and enthusiasts have interpreted the group's decision to postpone work on the next-generation truck as meaning the program is cancelled.

"That's simply not true," said Coletti, who spoke with PickupTruck.com at the Innovations Day luncheon, which kicked off Ford's participation in the 2004 SEMA Show in Las Vegas on Nov. 1.

2008 :(

BTW Hamma, the value of all SVT Lightnings has just increased. If 2008 rolls around, and Ford officially cans the SVT Lightning project, they're going to be worth lots of money, and they are only going to increase in value. :eek:

Hopefully Ford sticks to it's guns and doesnt can the project when 2008 rolls around.

I figured that would happen, it happened when they went from Gen1 to Gen2 as well.
