i like the low feel. for everyday fun driving. i feel better the closer to the ground. the ride is satisfiable. control wise. as for winter if my car gets to see it i will jack her up all the way for the fun of it. this is the fun (project) car my next car i will purchase when i get to the states will be the cuiser everyday driver grociery go getter. it is my ownly form of transportation for now till then due to the totalling of my other suv.
