This whole conversation makes me laugh. I can see the arguments on both sides but I think some folks missed the point. He was not saying that driving a lifted truck is inherently unsafe, just that EOC is no worse. And not that it matters but for me EOC would make absolutely no discernible difference how my truck handles or brakes... Granted my truck has manual steering and manual brakes from the factory.

Oh and while I am not an offroader I have to stick up for my S10 brothers... whoever said S10s were never meant to be lifted or go off road please look up the Chevy S10 Zr2. They are lifted sitting on 31s from the factory and are very capable off road trucks in stock trim. Oh and they use the same size axles and brakes as the non Zr2 4wd trucks, so...
