Talking Raise it or Lower it?

Raised or lowered....do you actually use your suspension for what you bought it for?

I hate it when I see trucks with 38 inch tires that have never seen a spec of dirt!

If you got it USE it!

I dont have a bed and I really dont have anything to tow. I was going more for a look than functionality of a truck. I wanted something with a high seating position so it would be easy on my knees, room for 5 people, and for it to be quick. Im close, just not too quick

I like mine lowered. I prefer that sporty look rather than the rugged look.

Plan on lifting mine this spring sometime. Probably go with the 6-7.5" Superlift.
That or I may look for a low milage 01 or 02 2500 crewcab duramax. Don't like what chevy did with the front ends on the 03's and up. May keep mine for a few more years and see if chevy comes out with something new or find something else. Haven't decided yet.

Really want a cc duramax though, just didn't have the money at the time I bought my 02
