When this big truck driving hill billy gets into his lowered car or truck and gets blinded by another hill billy with a lifted hill billy truck, guess what I flip up my mirror but I guess only hillbillies have this skill.

Its very easy to spot the stupid and smart drivers, and your post just put you in the stupid category.

Don't regret lowering... I do however regret using race springs instead of sports springs. Ride is way too rough.

Question though, if being too low is against the law, isnt being too high also against the law? I've seen some trucks that are SO high it looks like the dude driving would need a ladder to get in

My 1 regret for lowering my car is that it is that much easier to scrape those stupid barrier things when parking head-first.  | |

What's the law on raising your truck? How high is too high? Bottom of the body no higher than the top of the tire?

Do I regret lowering my car(s)? Apart from the occasional setup that was designed for a smooth track and not the street, no. Do I regret it because it's easier to have headlights affect me? Again, no. Despite the fact that I live in an area of the Lower Mainland that's surrounded by lifted trucks, I find that aftermarket HID's in halogen housings are faaaar more distracting to me than OEM lights in trucks.
