You guys have been driving trucks for too long. Drive a even mildly lowered car and it will teach you not to pull onto a curb, and you will learn to angle even the slightest inclines. :Big Laugh:

I may not have owned or driven a lowered car but, I've seen a lot of videos on youtube about them getting caught up :)

Honestly, even going in at angles would not help with some of the dips in the roads here. There's just a few but, if you're not paying attention, they'll get yah haha.

when you carry around a piece or two of 1x6 deck boards to help get in driveways then you know the life lol, angling plus wood was my best friend in my S2k!

It's different when I park my CC; I always make sure there's nothing underneath when I air it out. Plus there can't be a curb to either side or the doors won't open. But the Denali is different, it was just low enough to only cause trouble occasionally with an added air dam.IMG_8051.JPG

Reminds me when I used to carry a dead blow hammer in my Z28 because I used to rip off my JC Whitney dual exhaust all the time. I got really good fixing it while I was stopped at red lights.

That must've been a site to see. Having to run out set up the boards, drive over them go pick them up and put them in the trunk. Hahaha that's awesome. I just pulled in, held my breath and hoped and prayed it was still intact when I would try to deter from hitting things.

Your CC is sick.
That's how mine is now that its back to "normal" haha. Just enough to catch but hopefully not enough to rip it off.

That's awesome, I can just imagine the looks on peoples faces while you're out there beating your exhaust with a hammer, hahaha, that's great




Got my alignment today, all good now. Had a little wear on the inside of my tires but I think when I rotate them they should be good to go. If not, looks like I'll be getting two new tires, again.
