Ya I'm stationed here in sd

I trust a company called ATF MOTORSPORTS. They built my bumper. The owner is really cool. He's built sema trucks but got his start building lowered bag trucks. He can do almost anything.

LIFT!!! Not lower! It's really up to you but IMO, I freakin HATE lowered trucks!!! Trucks are meant to be big and mean, not lookin like it could compete in a swag contest or the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.

Every truck has its place. Trucks are meant to tow and work and a stock ride ride height or lower tows better than anything. Plus 2wd is good for speed. Take a ride in a 600 hp lowered truck and you'll see why they are awesome.

Yea, but I'm into off-roading and other dirty stuff with trucks and you definitely can't take a lowered truck into mud. Well, you could, but wouldn't get too far...lol. Lifted trucks actually look like trucks to me. Lowered trucks remind me of pimp cars that hop along down the street...lol

I love lifted trucks but they are expensive. Tires are more expensive, you have to regear if you go too big, it's harder on fuel, and not to mention a good lift is gonna run about a grand. Ya they look good but so do dropped trucks. 4x4 sky it 2wd drop it and drag it. My .02

Sick truck. What color is that? It doesn't look standard red? I saw a dropped truck like your with the coolest red I've ever seen but can't find it again to ask the color. I want to do my future 2wd project in said red color or black ( love black trucks)
