He definitely likes to have fun, but when there's a camera he's all like "no pics! no pics!"

Unsure how 4 year old Lightning wheels can be considered "retro", but O.K.  BTW, that isn't one person's truck, it's an actual SVT company show vehicle/platform excercise, just like the V6 Focus "Chilli Pepper" right beside it.
BTW, the pics are fine Todd. John just has an obsession with oversized pics. JVT = photo-junkie!

I was hoping the water in my left fog light (my latest mod) would be visible in this pic. Oh well.

NY State Trooper: So what makes your car so special to have SVT all over it?

Hehe, it wouldn't be SZ if I didn't have to get under my car at least once! Actually I developed a header leak thanks to the nasty Michigan roads. The rear bank where the y-pipe and header connect started to come undone so I was checking it out. Was making my O2 gauge read more and more lean.

Retro as in genre swapping, not as in time. Those are not the 2000 edition wheels either. I ride in a 2000 lightning pretty much everyday, i think k they must have swapped them in 2001 ?? Perhaps 2002 not really sure.
98 Black SVT~ The most logical statment I have ever heard was by a local mechanic. "Everything is somewhere."

Actually the wheels are custom, not your standard Lightning wheels (note the spelling of "Lightning")
The fronts are 18X8" and the rears are 18X10.5" Standard Wheels are 18X9.5"
