Default Williston should have a sign that reads: "Welcome to Williston, Suspension Lift Capital of the World"



Just sayin'.

Lol some of that is just rednecks being rednecks, but those lifted trucks can have their uses in winter and spring.

True, they have their uses for sure. This type of thing is cropping up more and more around here - I think the one pictured is a bit over the top. Not stereotyping (okay, maybe I am, just a little ), but it seems like some (not all) of these folks that drive this type of thing get it into their brain that they are invincible, and drive like crazed monkeys on crack. There is more chance of a rollover in something like that as well. They don't do any better on ice either. They are good for deep snow and mud. My husband would probably like it.............................

Not EVEN CLOSE! During the housing bubble, Iceland was registering thousands of trucks with suspension lifts and it was estimated that 20% of all registered vehicles had them. I doubt even 1% of registered non-commercial vehicles in ND have suspension lifts.

I can tell you, from experience, just by first glance that the above noted truck is not legal to drive on ND roads.

[Mod cut]
And if anyone is wondering..... Heres most of the equipment laws that are usually broken by out of state lifted rigs being brought in to the state.

-Head lights cannot be more than 54" to the center of the beam from the ground.
-Max body height is 42" from ground to the floor of the cargo area
-max bumper height is 27" from ground to lowest structural part of the bumper.
-Max tire size is 42" diameter.

Uh, I can name numerous cities in so cal that have more lifted trucks than this place. Instead the city should be called." The most bone stock capital of the country". I've never been to a city with so many trucks that are stock.

I think the reason for that is that there are a large amount of trucks that are company owned. Companies won't install lift kits or custom modifications unless they serve a purpose more than just aesthetics. You probably won't see a Haliburton pickup looking like that.
