I just sold my 2wd Ram with a 6" and 35s and I loved it but now I now have the 05 King Ranch 4x4 and can say that the 4x4 is a great piece of mind and for the 2 times I have used it it saved me alot of trouble.

It comes down to preference as everyone else says.

They look the same till you look for driveshafts hahaha.

I'm still looking at trucks, but I made an offer on it today. If they take the offer, I'm buying it.

Yep, I think lifting a 2wd is a great idea if you don't live in a muddy area. My LS rear gets me through some nasty stuff, and the extra ground clearance gives me the room I need to crawl through the rough spots when I'm up in elevation hunting/fishing/dirt bike riding. I say go for it.

^^^ And hopefully with the 6.2L as an option ... at least that's what I'm hoping for. Although I need to wait till 2012 to meet my 10 year minimum quota for keeping a truck.

Yes sir... It's already going in the new Superduty and the new Raptor(?) Rumors say it will be available in the 2011 F150.

10 years with the same wife? I think you're beating the national average, congrats!

Most people who have 4x4 will say that its completely useless to lift a 2wd. I think that its a matter of personal preference and I dont see anything wrong with lifting one up.

That is a nice truck by the way.
