A truck squatting is acceptable for one reason - heavy load

Does anyone have this style running boards on their truck? Can't tell if they would look good on my '98. If you do please attach a picture.

Hell not even that's acceptable. If you're going to haul a heavy load, make sure your dog is properly equipped to handle such a load.

If to extremes. Assuming you have decent tire clearance, an inch or 2 of squat under a load close to the trucks limit is fine and moreover the truck should be equipped to handle such a load

Now if you're shooting for the clouds like the Ol 15dy boys that use half a 6" kit, then yes you may want a stronger truck
