Dono, I never figured you to drive a lowered truck.
BTW are you still running for President in 04?
Anyway, I like both ways. It just depends on my current mood.

I started my presidential run in jest, but feel that I could screw things up just as well as the ones who claim to be serious.
Thanks for your interest.

Though, in your scenario I must shiver at the though of not seeing them coming in time to avoid them by turning the wheel. At least in the lifted truck, if they do sneak in from your blind side, it is a safe bet they will get the worst of the damage. You can also manage a large part of the inherent risk in a lifted truck by slowing on corners and curves, if the vehicle height is . . . excessive.
Again, opinion - nothing more - on my part.
