      Are you kidding So Cal freeways suck the big wangdoodle!! California wasted gas tax dollars on everything but actually fixing the roads. Most of the other western states have freeways that are as you described but in California I have damn near been bucked off the freeway at 65 by a seperation joint.

      I agree with all that has been said here on ride height. The wheelbase, suspension design, spring rates, shocks, what hangs down and where under the car is the determining factors along with road quality or if the local government uses speedbumps. The front crossmsmember is the lowest point of my Chevelle and it is approximatly 4" off the deck, my Monte Carlo is really low at 3" to 3.5" off the ground and has been known to bounce the front crossmember off the pavement at street dips.
