You can pretty much get stuck in my front yard with those paper thin slick tires, which also leads to bent rims on south Louisiana roads. Ride quality is NOT better, the stiff suspension and unforgiving tires are more likely to leave your bed in the street than to leave you thinking of how nice the ride is (we have some pretty terrible roads here). I've been down that road and promised myself "never again" and I don't miss it. I still admire the tastefully done baggers at the shows but am glad I no longer own one.

Defeats the whole sole purpose and the functionality of a regular truck never mind a raptor. To each their own, but I have a hard time seeing any sort of lowered truck and being able to call it a truck.

I just dont get it. Why not give a Vette a 8" lift?
