Def. High. Lowered trucks make as much sense as jacked up cars.

PS Learn to make polls.. no one can ever vote.

This response always gets me, a huge lifted truck is just about as useless as a lowered truck. If anything a lowered truck is better. People always say trucks should be raised, they are made for hauling stuff. Isnt it easier to put whatever your hauling in a lowered truck then one with an 8 inch lift kit[&:].

Raise a truck. A lowered truck looks retarted because the wheels are tucked in and look "different". You can mess up your pain and junk from speed bumps.. Raise a truck--lower a car.

Which is why they started putting air-bag and hydraulic suspensions on lowriders....

That is even more ridiculous. I understand some people like it, but I hate it. I hate the look of custom things, except a RC. I hate candy paint, HUGE chrome rims and airbags. This is weird coming from me, most black people adore huge rims and candy paint. I like dark silver paint and bronze rims on a sleeper import. Not that fast and furoius junk everyone has fallen in love with. Those movies have ruined the lives of car enthusiests.
