Nah, I don't like it. Lifted trucks that aren't 4x4 to me are just a waste of time and money. I like either stock height, or lowered. I had my F250 crew 6.0 lowered 2 inches and she rode like a car with tons of power. My son has it now and had been thinking of lifting it and converting to 4x4, but now he really likes it lowered much more. I had put a 4" turbo back exhaust with no muffler (complete straight pipe) when I had the engine bulletproofed, and now he's going up to a 5" turbo back. Ever since I had the engine bulletproofed (with no tunes), the thing is rock solid and a monster pulling machine. The thing is just a monster with raw pulling power (with all the comforts of being a Lariat).
 
12v Cummins anything and its cool ! Though I will have to agree that its over the top. Too much going on and too tall. I will disagree with the 4x4 thing. I have seen more mud trucks in Florida that are 2wd with a full locker go through more that a 'STOCK' 4wd. Most stock 4wd's still have a tire in the front and tire in the rear that spin when stuck. If that same truck had a full locker in the rear, more than likely 4wd wouldn't ever be needed unless an entire tire was in the air.
 
I am a stock guy, Cummins Fumer conversion is an option for a 5.4L gasser but I will stick with my Powerstroke.

No 4WD for me, I have a highway queen and yes, I have gotten it stuck in soft grass but an 8,000 lb truck sinks in anything soft.
