On many levels I would agree, but it's still a form of expression. The HID thing though, that's just flat out dangerous.....

My main problem is towing. Im sure a squatted truck can still pull, but i know it takes away from full towing capacity because eventually the rear end would bottom out even if the truck can pull it easily. Plus itll make your truck look like a bitch if its towing so much as a lawnmower or something.

The only squat that looks good is the one from a trophy truck or pre runner with properly set up sag for blasting over rough terrain.

This crap just looks dumb and serves no real purpose. If you want bigger tires just sawzall the wheel wells!

I'm sure other drivers really appreciate the headlights (and fog lights for that matter) right in their eyes too especially "squatters" (ha guess they sit when they pee??) running HIDs in both!

** Removed as in reality it is pointless... **

I'll go back to watching the name calling and the "My truck is cool... yours is stupid" match going on.
