    There is a HUGE difference in slamming and lowriding. One of the differences is the car. The other is how it is lowered. In the car, reasoning, if you're dropping a land yacht, it is referred to as either lowered or dropped. Compact cars are considered slammed or even (and I hate this term) dumped. How is it lowered? If you're using hydraulics, your car is either juiced, tucked or (believe it or not) lifted. Waaaay before the days of raising your car to fit bigger wheels under it, when you had your switches, your car was "lifted." I think air bags may have adopted some of the same terminology. If you're on springs, coils or heated/cut springs, you're slammed, or dumped, depending on how low you are. Later, QD.

    I saw three lowriders on 85N coming home last night. They all had club plaques in the rear. I hope there will be more and more around the area. I love them.
