new suv owners
 

how long did it take you to get use to being so high in the skies?

right away

for some reason I have the urge to kill and destroy..but due to the fact of me not wanting to flip over I dont

Once you get used to it you can't go back down without feeling vulnerable.

Explorers even with Good Year tires have the worst roll over rates.

"The Ford Explorer has a higher rate of tire-related accidents than other sport utility vehicles, even when fitted with Goodyear tires and not the Firestone tires that have been linked to 101 deaths nationwide, The Washington Post reported on Monday, citing an analysis of national and Florida crash statistics."

thanks for fucking up my weekend fletch :1orglaugh

you got a new explorer tdf? when are the 22's comin?

SUV driving position is god! :1orglaugh

nah i got a sexpedition,the navi would have been too much for my women to handle

i used to drive an expo, the only thing i had trouble adjusting to was the big steering wheel, other than that, everything was tight

the handling of the car is off the hook,making turns are very awkward for now but it handles great on the road.Rollovers slightly concern me though

no time at all. But then my SUV was a little larger than the civilian versions.

that s a nice piece of machinery..truck driving looks like a compete nerve racking event

get some 22's and drop it 4 inches, it'll feel even better :thumbsup

So damn true - you feel like you're on a tricycle once you drive a car again.

Anyhow took me about 2 days.

i have never driven an SUV so i dont know how high one can be.

Before I lifted mine, I had full roll cage installed and long arms. I still won't drive it like a sports car.

wHOOPs. I am not a new SUV owner. :)

holly shit - that's not a sleeper - that's a god damn apartment!!!

I went from a 83 olds cutlass supreme to a brand new 4runner in 2000 - needless to say it took a few months to get use too

My daily driver is fairly big 03 F250 Fx4. It sits up higher then most SUVs I love it. Then in the weekend I get in my z06 which is so low to the ground the difference is freakish. You get used to being able to see everything so high up. In cars you miss that luxury.

That is an awesome rig!

I love my suv. I can hardly drive a normal car now.

Congradulations player!

:thumbsup

I prefer being low to the ground in a car. I feel more "in touch" with the road. Sure I may not be able to see overtop of the cars infront of me all the time, but you get used to looking through their windshield.
I didnt like switching from my car to my truck. I got used to it, but I still prefer the low down feeling of a dropped car.

wont take you long and you wont even notice it doesnt bother you anymore, or at least that is how it was with me

suvs suck :2 cents:

I am 5 foot tall and I feel like a GIANT in mine!! I love it.. for once in my life.. when I wear a short skirt.. Dudes can not look in my window and stare ... I stare at them now lolololol WOOHOOO I love my suv!!:Graucho
