I love beef and barley soup!
CroodStar is correct....51% of the reason I wanted to do air was to make the daily commute more stress free. And for those times when my wife needs to take my car somewhere. For my daily commutes, my car sits up high, at about 50% of the vertical travel (like Undying Dream's TL ). For photos, like on the page 41, it's 90% down. It can go even lower than shown in those pics, but it starts to look pretty goofy.

John...after seeing your setup on here and FIYAH TL's setup in person am pretty sure that when I am ready for a family sedan, its going to be on an air setup....
its just perfect IMO, as you mentioned you can raise it up and drive and not worry about scraping....from what FIYAH TL was showing me, you can adjust the dampening and you can get it real low for pix and bragging rights....
well done brother....well done !!!

You know I still got love for your sloth-mobile, Austin.
Thanks Anil! It's a great to finally have my cake and eat it too. Yes, there's a lot of fine tuning to get it just how you want it. Damping setting, threaded collar setting and the bag setting. Once you get the damping and collar settings dialed in, the rest is easy.
The only thing I have left to do is to install a safety valve on my tank and add a water trap to collect condensation from the air that exits the tank before it gets to the Accuair manifold.

I think anyone's TL that looks just as good in snow as it does any other time of season should be shot......
Looks fantastic John, but you guys are killing me with these snow pics.......
