It is Ironic that this Car based Estate has a lot more ground clearance than the pathetic Silverado.

I figure that is pretty much my dream garage right there anyways. A new R109 and a new w123 wagon. Noone could mess with me then :)

If you take that plastic splitter off the bottom of the bumper, you get quite a bit more clearance. I can't find a picture of it but I'm pretty sure it's meant to be removable.

It better be. If not, how ridiculous in Chevys part. Nothing against Chevy by the way.
