who says a lowered truck cant be used

To whom it my concern,
Ive built several lowered trucks in my day, and the first time that they wont pull a trailer then ill sell them.As several members of this board have writen lowered trucks can haul as well if not better when set up right to haul. Most of the trucks ive built are lowered with the exception of three 4x4 73-87 chevys and a lifted 9o0 cherokee for the girl friend.All of which have trailer hitches.I have 2 dropped duallies both are complete air ride systems and i pull a triple axle 32' enclosed trailer at any time with either one. My other trailers are a 16' utility and 18'flat bed car hauler from diamond-c trailer manufacter from texas.So for all those who doubt a lowered truck should double check before making any false calms about lowered trucks.I dont have any pics as of yet but i will now that there seems to be doubt among us. As a shop owner it is my business to built trucks that do every thing as intented,and towing is a big concern to many.Please dont stero type lowered truk owners as (ricers)some of us do use the right kind of suspension systems whether using air or stationary style kits. We need not to bicker amongest ourselfs and be here to help one another that is the purpose of this board right?

used the crap out of her today. got 4 pallets of sod.. did you all know those weigh 2500 pounds? i was shocked... thats per pallet!

any way. one pallet was no prob for my long horn.

i did see this guy with a f150 trying to put a pallet in the back.. i was sure the springs were going to brake. the bumper was less than 6 iches from the ground, lol i

t was funny as hell..they had to lough half the sod by hand. they watched the guy put a pallet in the long horn, and she just squatted a few inches. i smiled and drove off.. haha
