Re: Why lower a truck?

Lowered, lifted... whatever... if a truck is nicely done it's gonna bring some more cash. Just because a rusted hulk is lowered or lifted don't mean it will bring more bucks.

If you like stock... bone stock... That necisarily won't bring more money either. To toss another wrench in the mix... is when cats say they have a "numbers matching" truck. That brings no extra value in a mass produced vehcile that didn't have special high performance esuspensions or engines. Like these old trucks.
