If it's the 5.4 then I'm surprised that there isn't more damage but maybe they were just idling when they hit what they did and weren't in "the powerband" that is any RPM

I do like lowered cars, I had a 2000 Audi S4 with H&R coil springs and a bunch of mods.. It was stolen in 2005.. Police never found it.

Not to get off track but...

Since we're talking about wasting trucks and how lowering them ruins them I did have these pics, always worth a laugh
















They both look like someone buried half of them in the ground lol.

I agree! I don't like the wheels or the tires, but the rest of it's pretty awesome.

I don't like the weird black limo thing or the slammed Ex much at all. My opinion.

I can MAYBE understand someone getting a 2-wheel drive Ex if they live in California or Florida and don't ever plan to drive it where they would need 4x4.

Can you imagine the wobble driving over a set of RXR tracks that are not perpendicular to the road?

Better be a whole lot of structural reinforcement applied to the frame since it is missing the "C" pillar.

Must have had a tree fall on it, then it was "customized" to try and sell as a limited edition.

That convertible Excursion literally looks like someone just took a Sawzall and chopped the top off.

Maybe it was in the last fast and the furious... I haven't seen the last 12 so I don't know. I would think that trying to go under a semi in an X might chop off the top of a truck...
