lifting a 2WD truck is not stupid if you just want a road queen. To me ... lifts are great for 4x4's..nothing too ridiculous of course, because your getting better flexion and articulation, ability to fit bigger tires for offroading and the obvious yes it looks good. With that being said, yes it is pointless to lift a 2WD truck if you want it to help with your "performance" offroad. if you just want it to look cool.. its not bad at all.
I have a buddy who lifted his 2WD F150 and i tease him..daily... cus it is kinda goofy.
and that truck on the posts above me... IS A ROAD QQUEEN! but ...theres nothing wrong with that if thats what you like. Its weird though how that person could put that much money into their truck but couldnt spend a little more to get a 4wd// weird
