Yes yes, we all know you have a hate on for lifted trucks...


He's also a lot wider than stock now so that offsets some of the height.

Why do you accuse hate? To me its either physics or common sense. I see lifts as a styling choice.

And to the OP you will be surprised at what these things will do with nothing more than a good set of tires and intelligent driving!
So no lift and just get good tires and driving skills?

If you plan on doing some moderate to serious wheeling I recommend a lift I've been wheeling with good tires on a stock ride and my biggest issue has always been clearance and angles of approach as well as a small footprint. I'm definitely an lift advocate
