So, it's Scrapin' the Coast weekend down here. Used to be mostly low riders and other bagged cars and trucks. We were driving on Hwy 90 along the Gulf today and saw a number of trucks and SUV's with raised front ends and lowered rears. New trend? When I got home Google informed me that this "stance" is called a Carolina Squat. Just another nutty dumb cry for attention in my opinion but I suppose a lot of these are bagged and the owners are just showing off their investments.
Anyone else run into this phenomenon at your local Cars and Coffee or cruise route?
(This is from the Internet, not from Hwy 90 but the ones I saw were pretty much set up the same way)

Funny that you mention this I just learned what the Carolina squat was this week. I was leafing through my Hemmings magazine the other night and in an article about fixing the suspension on a second generation F-body they showed how to remedy a worn suspension that resulted in the front of the car being a lot higher than the rear and referred to it as the Carolina squat. I had a friend with a 77 formula that had this condition. Evidently it has become the latest craze with pickups etc.
Unfortunately they are out of stock for the filters for the S-2000. But their web site does allow one to search for filters for your other vehicles.
As for me. I use K&N air and cabin filters for both our S-2000 and Honda Fit Sport. One buys them once, and then can clean them, and reuse them for the life of one's vehicle.
