You don't really want to get in a debate over this with me, you will never win. Just ask a few of my club members, I'm pretty passionate about it. In fact I lifted less last weekend than most of the rigs I was with. Just take a gander at this thread and see. I understand the plus' and minus' but I still can keep my tires on the ground longer than short wb rigs in most situations.
