I wonder if some crazy insurance company would use that against someone with a lift kit on an '04 model of Ford or Nissan in case of headon collision with a small car. They could site the violation of Federal Standards by the owner against manufacturer's recommendations so the claim would not be payable..... Just a thought.....
