Any real advantage besides sticking out too far?

It would be worth having if you lived by the dunes. I so would build one if I was close to one!

They are very fun in the sand. The more money spent on the suspension the faster you can go in the rough stuff. I would like to add some of their design into my mud truck.

I would love to have a TRUE prerunner if I lived anywhere close to where it could be used... say out west.  They are a blast.  Just that MI isnt the place for them, other than the dunes.

Oh, and lifting a 2wd doesnt make it a prerunner.

There are 2wd and 4wd classes.  I would prefer a 4wd one myself.

When you say 2200... are you talking the S10 4cyl 2.2l?  If so... save your money and do it to another motor.  Those engines cant handle it.

And why can't they?? With forged internals it will hold 15lbs or better of boost can build a 2.2 To put out 300 hp without a turbo
