    Does anyone else think this truck squatting dragging the ground in the back is stupid? Is this just big around the Carolina area? The only time your truck should sag down is when your pulling something heavy! End rant.

    The only time mine comes anywhere close to doing that is when its loaded with firewood or gravel. Don't know why anybody would intentionally make one do that.

    I guess I'm out of the "cool crowd". Are people lowering the rear end of trucks and keeping the front end stock? That sounds like a great way to make a truck useless.

    It's every where in the Carolina's they lift the front and leave the back stock or something looks stupid.

    Leveling kits where the front is slightly (1/2") higher than the back looks perfect.

    The only thing that makes a truck look as dumb as the Carolina Squat is when guys leave the stock look of some trucks where the front is so much lower it holds a mini swimming pool of water in the bed after a good rain.

    Zombie thread...

    So I got back from California a couple weeks ago, and there were a bunch of these stupid trucks driving around. I have to say, they look even worse in person (which I didn't think it could get much worse). I should have asked one of them why they paid money to ruin a perfectly good truck :lol:

    That is all, carry on :)
