After the crazy rain we had this week, I wanted to clean the car quickly (I just love black spots all over my WHITE car!), so I went to wash my car by the local car wash I have a business account with, and the car won't clear the track that car car gets pulled through. They ended up hand washing the car instead. I guess that's a good thing, but now the car wash won't be 5 minutes anymore. I measured the height and it's about 5 1/2" ground clearance. I didn't expect it to be lower than the S2K, but it is..Oh well!
