Anyone have a truck with a lift kit? Going for SUV to Truck?

I have a 2005 Tahoe Z71 in good condition. Has a year left of full warranty (bought extended from dealer) and have someone who made me a good offer on it.

Since I bought it, I've been putting it to good use, but found myself asking to borrow my friends truck (F250) a few times to get things, like a snow blower, lawn mower, etc. I have an "every day car" that my gf will mainly drive and we use the Tahoe for picking stuff up, football tail gating, etc.

I'm considering buying a truck (crew cab), specifically one with a lift kit. First because I think it looks nice and 2nd I want people to say "oh shit, watch out for this asshole"

Im in between a truck or getting a larger SUV with 3rd row seats. I don't have a 3rd row now, my Tahoe only has 2 because of the sport package. I'm considering an Yukon XL or Escalade ESV. However, thinking of plans in the future, a truck might be better as I am working on redoing a lot of my property with landscaping and renting a lot of equipment to tear up my lawn.

Anyone made the switch from SUV to truck and happy? Likewise, is it better to buy a "regular" truck and lift it myself or buy one already with the kit?
