normally I dont' care what people do to their cars, but that is just stupid. Why a Hummer? Congrats on defeating the purpose of a Hummer.

It's still spacious of course, but they indeed screwed up the main purpose of the car.
Nevertheless, I was at a VW meeting last weekend and my friend learned me there's two ways of looking at these cars. First, there's the simple love it/loathe it-point of view. Second, there's the tuning-point of view.
From the first point of view, I'd say I never want to drive this car in my life. From the second, I'd say it's properly tuned and they could have gone even further than simply lowering the suspension.

They took a though car and thought lets give it an even more agressive look, lets lower it. In a normal sedan this works, but with this thing it is pretty ridiculous. That car can only drive on 20% of the roads and has to stop after every mile to peel away 10 rocks that are between the front bumper and the road...
The purpose of (visual) tuning is make the car look better & distinct if from others. I think it looks more ugly but they certainly will get attention with this kinda car.
PS: I suppose it has an adjustable suspension, he can not drive like this...

Oh yea for sure he is sitting on air bags, Truck guys like to "drop frame" for that added effect while they are stoped.

I dont know I guess i dont understand it, im all about functional performance, I will never invest into upgrade the looks of my car(i will keep it very pampered) no wings, or bling bling wheels, guages i wont use, etc. Soon as I pay her off its time to go down on that motor
