Stock, dropped, or slammed?

Getting bored. Moved to a new apt. so still no garage to work on the fleet bed yet... but I can still play with the truck in the parking lot... so... been thinking about it... what's everyone's thoughts on a 2/4 for my truck? Leave it stock? The slammed pic is for fun, I definitely wouldn't do that. Rims and tires STAY. I have no funds for anything different, plus they only have 8K on them. (Been here almost 4 years and this is my first poll )

Thanks all!

Re: Stock, dropped, or slammed?

I know i'm in the minority here, but with those tires, i think it looks best at stock ride height.

I like the 2/4 drop quite a bit too, i just think it would look better with some lower profile rubber that way though

I like the slammed trucks when they are done well, but i have gotten tired of them - mainly because of all the later model stuff i see running around with hardware in the bed and the rear end drooping 6" lower than the front
