I wish I had the picture I took with my phone. The google maps view makes it look like a little baby hill. Most of the time when I tell that story the people that are from Tallahassee look at me with a face that says why in the world would you try that.

When your going up it you actually can't see where it levels off till you actually level off lol

Okay see, we don't have very many hills here and the ones we do aren't as steep or as bad. There's actually only one that I can think of (I'll get a pick of it in a bit) that gives you that feeling in your stomach when you go over it it do it fast because I like that "dropping" feeling. But even at the bottom of that one, it's not to abrupt so it's no problem no matter the speed. I guess I understand why everyone says that Texas is flat

Yea we have hills for the most part downtown and that's where I would have most problems being lowered.

But I found the picture from my phone. Now i did it right before the stop sign where it is steepest.

Cant fix it I don't believe. I knew Once it shorted the first time and wouldn't power down it was done. I just disconnected the positive cable of converter and will be without speakers for 2 days or so.

Couldn't get a pic of the hill here but it's no where near like the one you posted. Although the one you posted looks like the entrance to the golf range here and even lowered its not that bad

Well that one wouldn't be an issue lowered since I can take it at an angle just staying that that hill was fun attempting to start in first on the summit in the Cruze without the Ebrake or heel toeing since it's a manual.

Really most of the time I have issues with scraping the Cruze downtown is when there is a dip and an irrigation drain at the exit of a parking lot.

Think for my bday I'm going to paint my GFX...not sure what else to do...zo6 brake mod is expensive just thinking about it...waiting to see if there's going to be a Black Friday sale on auto source zl1 bumper

So, leaves me with
1. Find black hood and get ACS carbon fiber insert
2. Get resonated x-pipe and weld that onto the LS3 catback i have

Freddy just lower it! You will learn how to avoid scraping the car or new new routes... "no pain no game!"
