Default Level it, or lift it???

I just brought home my new 2003 2500HD D-max. It's a crew cab short bed. I am contemplating leveling it, or keeping the rake and just raising the front and back 2". I don't need anything crazy right now. So should I just pull the front up 2" to level it? Or should I bring the front and rear up 2"? The truck will be towing my car around about once a week come spring time, and I don't feel like buying air bags right now. lol So I'm leaning toward keeping the rake, and lifting the whole thing 2". Thoughts?

I like the leveled look personally. Maybe level it now and 'bags in the spring when it comes time to tow the car?

I say level that bad boy and just get some bigger tires when the time comes.

I just bought a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers. 295/75/16 going on the stock wheels.

If you don't do a lot of off-roading just level it. and get some bags to help support the car when your towing.
