    It’s safe to say that we have a slight inclination towards lowering vehicles instead of lifting them. Once in a while though, it’s pretty refreshing to raise something over 10 inches into the air! Although she may never see any real mud, this Platinum F250 has all the right attitude. All white color matched bumpers and 26” Specialty Forged Wheels wrapped in 40” rubber make this crew cab the perfect truck for any “Miami Cowboy” ;)

    Wheel Specs:
    Specialty Forged SF0023
    26”x16”
    Finish: Pearl White Face // Polished Lip and Windows
    Tires: Fuel Mud Gripper M/T
    Tire Size: 40 X 15.5 X 26

    10" Full Throttle Suspension Lift

    As some one who does relatively hard core wheeling (which you could never ever do in the pictured rig) I assume that this is merely a style statement, like vinyl stripes and the like. I understand that some people probably love it--I just don't get it--but I'm a function over form guy. Plus, at least in my state, the wheel backspacing would make this illegal without huge flares.

    Yeah, there is no way that thing (with the FX4 Off-Road package no less) is going anywhere off the pavement with those wheels and, especially, tires.

    Down here in Florida things are like the Wild Wild West when it comes to automotive laws. The only thing they'll bust you for is windows that are far too tinted - go figure in the sunshine state.

    We don't have much off-road terrain here in South Florida so this customer was't really concerned with some of it's functionality being lost in exchange for that "wow" factor.

    I personally am not a truck guy but I still appreciate the wild things people are willing to do with their vehicles.

    These builds are all the rage at SEMA the past couple years. Nice truck but it is fashion over function.

    Does it have the lights under it to show off the lift at night? That's all the rage up here around Orlando.
    Plenty of mud in south Florida, home of the swamp buggy. I don't mind the lift and size even if it's not used. I just can't get used to low profile mud tires. To each their own.

    It does not but the customer did consider them. That hasn't caught on in major way yet down here in Miami (surprisingly).
