It's just a fast and furious styled ranger that didn't go over well. No performance upgrades, just Bullitt/GT wheels and a body kit.

The Thunderbolt was a special edition factory ford race car. If memory serves me it was a light weight fairlane or something like that with a 427??...either way, they are a very rare factory race car youll see them once and awhile at the drag strip. Not sure about this pickup thing. Maybe its like people calling there mustang a 'cobra' when its actually a cobra edition mustang...not the real enchalada.

I saw that on the SVT website not to long ago. I belive its a ranger with a lightning motor.
