Re: How low can you go

Lost track of road debris issues. 3 stick out.

83 Nissan Maxima diesel. Vise flew off service truck. No way to avoid. Took out steering , damaged driveline and put a huge hole in tank.

2012 VW Passat Sel. Wife backed up to allow downhill car to pass on our one lane road.
When we left later I said I smelled diesel. She said i was imagining it. Went down and got on hwy to town. Looked in rear view mirror to see a trail of diesel 2 feet wide and like 10 miles long. Something had ripped the fuel lines out of the tank and the rtn line was spraying big time. $2000!

Neighbor hit a 6" rock and tree debris in his new mustang at 35 MPH. Steering, oil pan driveline and rear end damaged.

Maybe its being rural but lowered cars are rare around here. Now everything is lifted but still get pucker when i see something in the road.
