Default too low for emmissions

mandatory emissions test in order to register my car in Colorado, its nice to fail for something other than a missing cat or crap o2 sensors


vehicle lacks sufficient ground clearance

I thought some of the other reasons were kinda interesting too

agreed, it was a "valid" complaint. My only real issue with it was that I haven't changed ride height or anything on my car in 6 years, with a mandatory test every 2 years that means this is the third time in like this and the first time they've refused to test it.

removed my front lip and over inflated my tires and it was no hassle after that.

I guess my post was because I found it a little amusing, less than that I am complaining
