:eek: :rolleyes: I just don't get it.. Lower your truck and decrease it's capabilities, or raise it and increase it's capabilities.. Hmm that a hard choice..

I hear ya Monster. That's why mine's lifted. Froggy does have a nice ride though. At least since he did it he did it right.

11-05-2004, 10:51 PM
prolly because its not 4wd so hes not going to be offroading, he wants better gas mileage, better handling, and doesnt want to be like every other lifted hd out there right now, just a guess though

I don't think he gave up that much... I don't remember what he said the maxed height was with the air suspension all up... the control system he has is pretty sweet.... Plus he can haul ass throught the turns now :D

Good point. I mean no disrespect to those that lower their rides. Just not my preference. 2 or 4 wheel drive, I prefer a lift. If not for offroading, then to see better on the road. I like to be able to see the accident happening 4 cars up before the guy in front of me slams on the brakes and I hit him.

I understand, theres trade off to both so i guess it does just boil down to preference. I know one thing i will NEVER lower another vehicle down from stock unless its bagged. Now lets see some more sema photos!

Also, Froggy's is a rolling advert for his business. So it is important to stand out some from the other 1,000,000 lifted HD's in SD. He had it lifted for a while, now lowered, any change that attracts attention is good.
Now for more SEMA pics, come on guys.... :D

Maybe he should remove the body all together. That would be quite different.
Around here everyone lowers their trucks so it is odd to hear that as though a lowered truck is a rarity.
Those pics are lookin pretty good ;)

Yesterday instead of taking the boat out I went for a ride on the Harley. On the way to Kingman I saw the MTI at a weigh station as I drove by. I wonder where it was going? It was heading towards the Vegas area. If the SEMA show was in Vegas then it was heading towards the 40 and from there?
He was headed to a charity event in Havasu.
Thanks for the good and bad words guys. This truck is not for everyone for sure, but I have definitely lifted my last truck. This truck is 100% better than it used to be, and that is an understatement. WAY better ride, better handling, easier to load (Put a Ducati in the back last night... couldn't have done that lifted) and tows a million times better. Plus, you hit a switch on the remote and it slams down for you, then pops back up in a little over a second when you start the truck.
I love it! I get stopped all the time about it and Trident since the drop, and it has yet to be parked anywhere but in front of a hotel by a valet. Pretty nice when your diesel truck is pulled up next to the AMG in front of the Palms...
More pics...

Definetely looks better than lifted Froggy. :D Airbags are the shit, aren't they??
Is that the gel scheme that's going to be on the first boat?? :confused:

Hey Wes,
There is a dock bumper on a stand in the way of the picture of the truck, can you move it? :wink: :p
Seriously though, is that what the first one off the line going to look like?

Yep. Got the gel shot today in fact. It looks amazing from the way it went down. This one is mine! I figure even if the worst case scenario happens, I still built my dream boat... ;)
We can't wait for this year.

Wes, it was great to meet you at Sema. Truck looks very cool, and your boat model is awesome.
Best of luck to you.

Same to you! Actually, there was a whole grip of people we met at SEMA from the forums, and every single one was totally cool in person.
Did you end up having a good show?

We would have to drive in from Vegas. We are having Thanksgiving with Jen's family this year. It's not out of the question though. We'll see. We may be planning to come down to the Charger/Saints game next month. You guys up for some football?

At the least, you will have a place to stay.
I don't watch much football, but we may have to make an exception for the cause...
