Anyone deal with "unsafe vehicle" tickets?

Being on air suspension I feel I drive pretty low. Probably too low. Last night I got pulled over for driving too low deemed "unsafe". I told the cop I was on air suspension and proceeded to raise it up to stock. He said that was all well and good but if I get pulled over with it again I could receive an unsafe vehicle ticket, or even worse be towed and impounded.

Can this seriously happen when I can go back to stock height in 4 seconds?

Everything I have is DOT approved. What about the old style Lincolns? Or Metro buses? Air suspension is legal, so how can he threaten me with being impounded because I was driving low?

Any advice on how to get out/fight that kind of ticket or issue is appreciated.
