      That's several days into a road trip where people naturally have had just a little too much time together. It happened on pretty much every motorcycle trip I've been on with my one buddy that's lasted more than 2 days. People are tired, feeling like they'd rather be done with the trip, and get cranky. Eventually, the feeling passes and everything is good again.

    For a year, I daily drove a lowered honda with all the performance(not for stance) suspension parts right down to a traction bar. Thankfully, it's wheels weren't cambered out. It had only 7in. of ground clearance. The ride was so stiff, I couldn't drive for more than 30mins. I could feel my spine slowly being ground down, or a spinal disc being compacted. Whenever I backed out of a driveway, one of the back wheels would stay off the ground, and the car would go tri-pod. I cannot express my relief when I found a buyer for it. I do not miss that car AT ALL😆😆 I bought an old camry to replace the honda, and I love it: Ground clearance, & a comfortable, cushy ride. Lesson learned! I'm never owning a lowered car ever again😆😆😆

    I have always had a "to each his own" attitude when it comes to automobiles because everyone is different. As an automotive technician there are things that just shouldn't be done. Stance is one of them. The other thing I find as a technician is people who run stance usually don't take care of their cars much less worry about the saftey of them. It appears the only thing they care about is "I gotsta have my look". Really enjoyed the this series of videos. Keep up the good work!
