Is it me or what?

Hi everyone
I have a 01 X5 3.0 with 19" stagged wheels. It seems to me that the gap between the rear tires and the body is too big in my car. All the X5 I see on the street don't have that big of the gap and they look tall, nice and tough. My X looks low to me with a big gap in the rear. Whenever I look at the X, I feel different. Is it just me or my car had higher than stock strust in the back. If this is the case how do I find out?
BTW, have you guys ever heard about using water to run cars. I got an email about turning H2O into HHO and use it to power the car. I know it may belong to the lounge but since I am in here so I post.

can't answer #1 without a pic. As for the other thing...if water could improve mpgs I think the auto industry would have figured this out by now

1. agree, need a pic...
2. this was discussed a week or two ago, basic consensus was if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is
