no more Lightning, but i replaced it with something nice in black..

when to Vegas yesterday and picked up a 05 Excursion 4x4 Limited with 19K miles.. i got a great deal on it and the dogs love it, they think they in a Limo..





now i can get a bigger boat .. the tow weight on the lightning was the only thing holding me back.. this beast can tow 12,000lbs ..

Anyone else looking for a Lighting I'm trying to sell mine now .It's a white 04 with 22,000 miles Mint condition, Owned by a mature senior ( me ) Driven to mass every Sun.& to the market. Will consider a GN as a trade in. Provided its in same condition. This is my third L & they have all been great. I need to find something a little slower as the tremendous acceleration of this vehicle is causing me blackouts. Pictures available upon request. Lou
