Lifts...

To all you guys (and gals) with lifts, I would like to know how it affects the daily comute factor... Also, does it really affect driveability and responsiveness on the highway?
Thanks guys..
Great site.

makes all the smaller vehicles get out of the way...seriously, I don't notice any effect on driveability (if 53 footers can make it around on the highway then you can too). One thing that is more difficult is to park because you can't really see the cars on the right side too well if it's a tight spot. Once you get used to it you won't ever think about it again and will have the same response I'm giving you now to someone later down the road with the same question.

The only differences I noticed was it rides just a little rougher (not much) and its a little harder to stop while hard braking because of the bigger tires. Other than that no biggy and I would do it again. If you dont drive heavy footed you'll lose about 2 MPG also
