i know its a 350 but this is the exact look I would go for if I had a f250  - I've rode in my buddys lifted 250 and It had to be one of the most uncomfortable rides ever..way to bouncy!!

random pic i found

ask yourself how you're going to use the truck. if you have a wife/girlfriend, will she mind climbing up if it's lifted? i used to have a reg. cab silverado lowered 5/7 and it was easy getting in and out, but daily driving that thing was a task. the lower it goes, the better it looks, but after a while it got ridiculous.

Like stangin' said, it's all in how you want to use it. From time to time, I'm putting 90lb bags of concrete, 1/2" sheets of 4x8 plywood, and tons of tools in the suburban, and I can't imagine trying to lift all that junk into a lifted truck bed.

That black dually looks awesome!

Still waiting on the cylinder heads to get finished. The tooling to do the valve job had be custom made due to the new 40* valve angle on the intake valve of the 6.4 heads, (the old angle was 38*). Also waiting on the upgraded valve springs to come in as well. [burnout]
