What are the benefits of having a lifted GMC Sonoma?

I am skeptical about lifted trucks. I think it looks silly, but there must be a reason people do it. What are the benefits of having a lifted GMC Sonoma?

While the look of a lifted truck might not be to everyone’s tastes, there are some real benefits to having a lifted
GMC Sonoma
, including improved road visibility.
You can lift your GMC Sonoma by raising the suspension or bringing up the body. Both will get you farther off the ground and create space for larger tires.
The benefits of a lifted GMC Sonoma include:
  • Better handling
  • Better visibility on the road
  • Improved off-roading
There are also numerous downsides, unfortunately, including:
  • Higher chance of a rollover
  • Worse gas mileage
  • May void warranty
Whether or not the positive outweighs the negative is up to you.
