Pictures of the X!

So, I finally took the time to take pics of the new ride. My first post was on rear sag. The tire pressure was at 40 PSI in the rear for some odd reason so I retified all the pressures and now, let me know if you all think there's some sag.

01 V10 XLT with class 5 hitch ( atleast I think it is. It says it on the hitch 5a )

Looks to me like the entire Excursion is sitting too low.

Is that a 2 wheel drive?

It is a nice truck but you and I both need to lift a few inches. I wouldn't stiffen the suspension thou. You'll feel every bump on the road. I was at advance the other day and saw a 4 inch rear spacer (lift kit) for about $30. and a set of 4 inch front spacers for $50. I almost got it but stopped to think how weired the truck would look 4 inches higher with stock tires. I decided to hold off untill i jump on some bigger tires.

She might not want to climb up in it.

A 2wd truck lifted 6 inches is only 2 inches taller than a standard 4wd Excursion. Believe me, I've parked next to 4wd trucks and compared, mines bigger.

The chicks I hang around range from short to average height, and as long as they grab the "oh ****" bar on the way in they don't have a problem getting in or out.

After a few drinks they do tend to literally fall on the way out though
