Then just lifting the jetta and lowering my boat trailer and I would have fantastic ability to access all these rough ass boat ramps to put in at.
I put my jetski in rough launches with my Prius no problem. I find it super maneuverable. Love pulling in, pushing the boat into the water, and pulling out all in the time it takes the average truck/boat to get a good approach at the launch.

I've also taken the Prius up a road that had many reviews saying high ground clearance vehicles only.
