Not necessarily, an off road skid plate may look weird on a street truck, but simply put a skid plate shot with some black undercoating and in line with the factory/lowered suspension will keep road debris, roadkill, and small rodents from your engine compartment especially on a lowered truck.
I hate that ugly rubber diffuser thing that goes from the bumper to the crossmember, and i havent had the time but i want to make a sheetmetal plate that will direct air a bit better at the tranny cooler and keep junk from getting up underneath there. i have had the rubber deflector torn off twice now.
Im just saying that a small skid plate will offer benefits on a lowered truck too, well not really a skid plate, more of an underplate air diffuser protecto thingamajig. cant really call it a skid plate lol.
