I see everyone tends to like lifting there trucks. I prefer the opposite.
Here's my negative lift....Haha.
Let me know what you think.

its funny cuz that truck may look good (alright in my opinion), but you might as well bag a car bro, you can get more uses out of a car other than a truck all chopped up like that. plus i guaranttee you wont be able to get jack for that thing when you sell it.

My truck is stock, except for a 2" leveling kit, and I prefer to own a stock or lifted truck instead of a lowered truck. But my reason for that is that I live in the snow belt and out in the country where ground clearance is needed for everyday driving. Especially in the winter.

That being said, I love the look of a well SLAMMED truck. Take a nice 2001 Lightning and drop it down, even just a couple of inches. NICE!!!

My opinion is, if you want a show truck and don't really use it for hauling trash to the dump or offroad, why not drop it? I mean look at the truck! That is one beautiful looking ride.

Man, so many ignorant red necks

Newsflash: Trucks are not made to be used purely to off-road. In fact, trucks aren't built to off-road, they are built to be able to tow and put big, often dirty things in the bed that you couldn't fit, or wouldn't want to fit inside of a finished car.

The reason why people get a TRUCK and lower it is because it looks bad *** and it is different. What else can I buy and throw some 22s on and have it look so unique and clean?

Should I throw them on a 300? Wow, never seen that done before

Please. Not everyone buys a truck to off-road it. In fact, I would say 90% of people with lifted trucks either don't ever off-road it, or do it maybe 1-3 times a year. What's the point in that?

Every single time I drive my lowered truck I get to take advantage of the improved handling and cornering abilities. Not to mention it turns heads like crazy. And I don't have to worry about pulling up next to 3-4 other guys in the same thing in a different color at every light.

Big rims and lower a car? Grats, no one even notices. Put an aggressive street/sport stance on a truck and rim it up and people take notice.

Why would would want your fenders dragging the pavement though? How impractical is it to have to dodge everything on the road because your bumper sits 2 inches off the ground.
