Long time lurker here, decided to go ahead with the purchase of a red Trail.
As soon as I saw the car on the lot I realized it was something off with the advertised ground clearance. The
specs show 9.6" but I just measured it leveled, unloaded and with the recommended tire pressure of 32psi and I get 8.6" at the skid plate. Is this just a matter of wishful thinking on behalf of Toyota or I'm missing something here.
UPDATE:
The mystery has been solved. The KDSS is reducing the ground clearance by about an inch. Thanks guys for clearing it up.
Toyota should have advertised this in the specs.
