How about using the standard f-150 body and finding a Lightining sticker kit somewhere?

To be honest with you, I like the HPI one better.

I'm actually doing a custom paint job for someone with a ford lightning on my forum right now. I'm using the HPI ford 200mm body. Don't put on the wing. The main thing to make it appear like the lightning is to get some wheels that are similar. The lightning has a short bed while the HPI truck has a long bed, but the tamiya one just doesn't look as good.
