    want to build an eletric car. thinking of using a maverick. there are some nice eletric car kits out there. by the kit, batterys and insert into car. great commuter.
    i would like an off road truck like a trophy truck or pro truck. built to be street leagle also. maybe take a new raptor and put trophy truck type suspension into. that would work.

    just looked at it on google images. it looks like a ford version of a pontiac g8.
    thinking about it im suprised that ford doesnt do a 4 door pefromance car. well i guess theres the tauras sho, but its just too limited production.
