No, its just funny everyone ive ever known with a truck lifted and big tires, loved it for a while then realized it went a lot slower, got bad gas mileage, didnt handle good really, and was a pain to load anything into. It became only the showoff factor after a while, then that goes away after a while then trade in time comes and no one wants a modified truck. A lot of guys I know..ended up going BACK to stock stuff after a few years, realizing it was a waste of money in the end.
