I'm sure you see at least a little snow in the winter

Yes, we do, but not a lot in recent years. Only put mine in 'snow' mode once last winter. And that was more to see how it worked, rather than because I needed it.

Is your Altitude ADII???🤔😉😎

No just ADI. And about the only 'off-road' it encounters is the occasional pothole in the asphalt.

This whole 'ride height' thing seems to take-on some qualities beyond the logical. I'm just gonna leave mine as the factory made it, unless/until I find some tangible reason to raise it.

the added clearance does help on those cold snowy mornings when you have to navigate through two feet of snow to get out of your neighborhood

Okay, now that makes sense to me. It's been decades here since we've had enough snow for that to matter. The snow seemed a lot deeper when I was a kid, but then again, I was a lot shorter too.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a firm believer in the notion that it should be 'your car & your call' when it comes to a lift kit. Just asking what the point of it is, if (like me), the closest you come to 'off road' is the occasional gravel driveway.

Around here, when you apply for insurance, the company will ask: "Will you be making any modifications to the vehicle?" If you say: "Yeah, I'm lifting the suspension", they either quote you a much higher premium, or refuse to insure you at all.

IMHO, anytime you raise the center of gravity without widening the wheelbase, you make the vehicle more prone to rollovers. How much more depends on how/where you drive. If you need the lift for obstacle clearance that's one thing, but if it's just for 'looks', I think it's kinda foolish.
