I like lowered 4x4's, makes me feel taller in mine!

I definitely agree with multiple uses of a 4x4. I rarely ever take mine out of 2wd as it is. Buuuut I don't ever want to embarrass myself in someone's back yard after it rains and not be able to make it up a slight incline (or mess up their yard). It's like airbags, the idea is not to need it but definitely nice to have.

Other than that, posting pics of yourself in uniform with your weapon... Ever heard of quiet professionalism? Just a thought

i need a 6 1/2 foot bed, but if you go with a four door, you can only get that size bed in a FX4... since i use the bed to work out of, i have to lower it.. so therefore, if i wanted a new truck thats a four door, i would have to buy a FX4

Didn't know that... Sounds a bit annoying to spend that extra money if you knew you didn't need it.

what a tool. Lowered looks great and makes all kinds of sense on a 4x4, at least where I live.Also, and not always,but often I will see a huge jacked up 150 or 350 and then some little dude hops out.... Just an observation.

Lmao, I hope nobody says that when they see me get out. Does 5'10'' meet the height requirement to avoid that?!!!

And the size of the guy driving it matters how? Are smaller guys not allowed to drive big trucks? And really guys? Y'all are gonna start calling someone a tool for sharing their opinion when you're sitting here sharing your own opinion? How does that make any sense whatsoever?

But, I have a special disdain for anyone taking the awesome platform that is the Ford F150 4x4 and shaming it by "slamming" it. If I could, I'd call in A10 support and have your lowered 4x4 strafed...not with you in it. I'm not a monster. Your thoughts on this obvious degradation?

The size doesn't matter..It's always good for a laugh though when someones trying hard to compensate .Also, I live in a city of a million cloned trucks...the craziest 4x4 ing any of those trucks see is down a gravel road.

I think worrying about such things could lead to high blood pressure.

Does it bother you that some guys wear boxer briefs, too?
