Man, I like low as much as the next guy...but that second pic. is just a bit much. There's no way you could get from point A to B w/ out rapeing your undercariage. Ouch!

I'd say the truck Poncho posted first would be the best length there... I know what you mean. Don't want ot too short or too long... about where that grey and red truck is is perfect. you wouldn't want it too low either...
