How is it half assed? Some people don't bag their stuff to make it lay, they just want to be able to adjust their height on the fly. It's alright to admit your jealousy, after all... who wouldn't want a brand new turbo'd Escalade on 3 piece 26" billet wheels with an adjustable (and smooth riding I'm sure) suspension. I have to say that I too am jealous of all his rides but I'm not knocking them
I'm already debating doing something with air on the back of the suburban, sits too high unloaded with the 2500 leafs (sits too high makes it too high for the dog who's overweight, and a pain in the *** when I need to throw dead bodies in the back for work) and only levels out with about 1000lbs pushing down on it. I'd rather lower the *** and add air for extra capacity when necessary. Hell it might actually improve my braking distances which have become an issue with teh blower because it'll balance the truck and make the rear want to lock up less and kick the abs in.

I'd take it if it didn't come with escalade payments vs. suburban payments

jealous? i think not. with the money involved in this setup. why not really do it. one of the worst things to see on a lowered vehicle of any kind is horrible camber. you can beat the camber without laying frame....i bagged body dropped for a while....just looks tacky...no jealousy here.
