...if there actually is one? I guess it's now called "Stance" by the cool kids?

I realize there are a lot of wild and crazy trends in car mods...but making it look like your suspension is broken doesn't seem to be worthy of anything.

Welcome to 2005. :lol:

That minivan is running an on-board air compressor connected to adjustable air shocks (normally referred to as "bagged"). It allows you to settle the vehicle down on the body while parked (provided you've also taken care that nothing mechanical is sticking out or in the way) and then lift the body to drive off.

They also may or may not have custom stereo. It may be loud. Neon lights might be involved. Everything is going to be ok. :lol:

I've seen them driving around like this also, I don't think they all have airbag suspension

Coilovers? Cut springs? Typically those types of mods can get your car low but not this resting-on-the-framerails low.

They could be driving around on bags. It's height adjustable at any point really, so if they want to be silly with it they could drive around like that.
