I say right on, the guy knows what he wants, and he's willing to spend his hard earned money to get there. I don't think anybody on this board would scoff and laugh at bodywork and new paint, but wouldn't it be just as "frivolous"? It doesn't make the truck drive better, tow more, or get better mileage. It's purely aesthetic. You like a truck that is shiny and looks new, he likes a truck that is taller and looks beefy, both require equal amounts of money.

x2, well said, it is after all HIS money

Right on, this forum gets more like pirates everyday. A guy just asks a simple question and they chime in on what "they" would do or should do. Just because it may not pertain to your personal taste you shouldn't hammer a guy over what he wants. I didn't see him asking for investors!! Go for it pal it's your coin

If you want to rock 44's on your DD, more power to you. I hate to see them that tall with the front driveshaft missing, but that's my OCD speaking. Build it, post pics, and drive the snot out of it.

Yeah I think it looks great too. If I were you, I'd do a 12 inch lift with a body lift and a shackle reverse in the back unless you don't care about how big the blocks are. I lived in NC for a short time and I know what it's like to want a big truck out there! The max lift here in Utah is 6 inches... Darn-it-all!
