Exterior “We were looking for toughness. not brutality. says J Mays. Ford’s chief designer. “It’s got to look rugged. It’s got to look authentic. ” But mainly. it must be “Ford tough. ” Some styling touches are borrowed from the Mighty F-350 Tonka concept truck. Perhaps the most noticeable element is the dip in each side window. created partly to improve mirror visibility but also to enhance the tough look. The grille on the new F-150 is still trapezoidal in shape. but it’s taller and sports a larger badge. The hood has been raised by 3 inches. the taillamps are taller. and the rear badge is larger. Tailgates on the 2004 models require less effort to open. Interior Changes in the exterior styling make the cabin wider and front seat roomier. designed to accommodate everyone from a 25th-percentile woman (approximately 4 feet 10 inches tall) to a 99th-percentile male (approximately 6 feet 4 inches tall). Provisions include a standard tilt steering wheel. The car has gorgeous stitching and leather/suede combination. Under the Hood This is a high performance SVT F-150 Lightning pickup. It is equipped with a 380 horsepower supercharged V-8 engine with three valves per cylinder. which produces 450 pounds-feet of torque. Magnesium cam covers are used for noise attenuation. and the V-8’s variable cam has a 50-degree range. Torsional stiffness is claimed to be nine times better than that of the previous model. A four-speed automatic is standard. Safety Four-wheel antilock brakes. seat belt pretensioners. load-limiting retractors and child-safety seat top-tether anchors will be standard. Dual-stage front airbags work with an “occupant classification system” sensor in the seat. SVT F-150 Lightning This car is a classic. because Ford offered its high-performance SVT F-150 Lightning pickup for the last time in the 2004 model year!! Fitted with a supercharged 5. 4-liter V-8 engine that develops 380 hp and 450 pounds-feet of torque. the SVT F-150 Lightning uses a heavy-duty four-speed-automatic transmission. Ford claims that this regular-cab pickup can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in 5. 2 seconds. Inside is a 60/40-split bench seat with what Ford calls “aggressive” side bolstering. Special styling touches include crystalline headlamps. a unique front fascia. clear turn-signal lenses. SVT-signature round fog lamps and an LED stoplight. Lower rocker extensions and a side-exit exhaust are installed. Low-profile tires ride on unique 18-inch wheels. Ford first offered an SVT F-150 Lightning in 1995. Driving Impressions Significantly more substantial in its redesigned form. the 2004 F-150 has a heavier. more solid feel than its predecessor. The suspensions react more positively to pavement flaws. rebounding rapidly and only as far as necessary. They recover quickly from large and small bumps. Acceleration with the 5. 4-liter V-8 is definitely quicker than the 4. 6-liter’s performance. Conversing in the F-150 is easy because the cab is pleasantly quiet most of the time. The interiors are roomy and the controls are convenient enough. About this vehicle This particular car is in excellent shape. Just look at the pictures and judge for yourself.
