Getting repeatedly flashed by every oncoming car's high beams because they think mine are on but actually LED lighting is just an arms race to cause as much light pollution as possible and i have no control over this please stop hating me :smith:

you gotta lift the truck higher, get bigger tires, and tint the front windshield

then drive with your light bar on at all times because you cant see poo poo

Gonna swerve outta the way of every speed bump in the parking lot in my lifted F-250, gently caress the time and safety of everyone else in the parking lot, can't risk my precious suspension. Them lil asphault bumps might even put some wear on my shiny, pristine offroad tires.

Why's it so common to own a truck that could go over a mountain and being terrified of a road bump? What the gently caress? What we've done to these trucks is as hosed up as what we've done to purebred dpgs.

Honest answer - Lifting a truck is generally done to fit larger tires, but it doesnt mean there is room for the larger tires to fully articulate. So the tires rub on the wheel well/suspension going over speed bumps, especially while turning. Its bad for the tires, bad for the wheel wells and suspension, and its loud AF inside the cab. Also it can physically jerk the driving wheel around if your setup is extra lovely, which is uncomfortable. If you get the "correct" lift then you wont have problems, but :lol: thats like 0.01% of giant trucks
