* you think mrs ultramaroon complains about its rough ride and getting out of it now .......just wait till it's even rougher riding and lower

* OK, go ahead lower it and see how long your car's rear axils hold up ......

* mrs ultramaroon - "how much are lowering springs including installation..??". Oh really, you're gonna install them yourself ..... while you could have been doing ____________ that I've asked you to do all summer. Well, I guess we CAN afford replacing perfectly good springs on YOUR car ...... but, the new kitchen ________, that I've been wanting is just not in the budget ......

So, there, @Ultramaroon ....... it's your call .......
