Okay I know I'm about get flamed here but WHUT THE HECK.... Having built numerious 4wd trucks in my before vettes era of life I kinda like this thing.
I know that may not be popular but aint nothin that can compare to ridin high. It is a kewl thing to pull upta the stop sign an be elbow to sign or higher. Not ta mention the off road perks an antics.
I don't expect this critter ta see much off road but in its own class this donk vert is pretty kewl ta me....
Jest fer the record they make a 44" tall tire now too...

One rim cost more than the whole friggin car is worth.
Your TAX dollars at work...

Some guys have too much $$$ and too much time.
But if that's what it takes to make them happy, so be it.
They get points for originality.
