Everytime I see a bump, or pothole I slow down and check my mirrors, this in turn keeps me on my toes about the cars around me which helps me drive safely. That is something that a lot of drivers dont do on the road. I know when I first met my ol' lady, she didnt even have her mirrors set to being able to see whats next to her. I also notice that when I drive a car home from work, let's say I have to do a few drive cycles to get the monitors ready, I am lazier when it comes to driving. because I dont pay attention because I have "no worries". So I drive my stick shift lancer that sits 3" from the ground everyday and love every second of it. Plus, I am a huge believer in driving a car. If I have something for my daily Im going to drive it, SLAMMED or not. I drive the car the way it is all year. SNOW, rain, sleet, tornado. EVERYDAY. I even take it up north and drive it on gravel roads. Doesnt bother me any.
Plus, its the same with driving a 500hp car on the daily. Its not practical to fill your tank up EVERY 150 miles, so practicality is not the argument here.
