I live in Imperial Beach, California. There is absolutely no reason to have one of these monstrosities here, and none of the 15 that live in my neighborhood ever have any type of mud on them. Not even the 4 whose hoods are at my eye level, I'm 6'3" / 192cm, because they lifted the hell out of them. I will admit that the guy who has an 8'4" tall old school VW bug may be a bit strange, but at least that thing looks cool, and he has it as an advertisement for his shop, so there was a reason for him to have the thing.

Ironically the VW is the only one that ever has any mud on it.
