Personally I love having a $1500 lifted Jeep that I don't give a rat's @$$ about. It helps that I have access to painting/bed-lining though.

yep, plus you can use that in the warmer months too to carry stuff.. like your z wheels to the tire shop so you dont end up with damage on your Z or your wheels.
