    Agree with you John Deere green a panther should sit level IMO. And the only thing that should be Cali style is a truck on bags, and a gasser should sit a lil lower in the back just a little tho.

          It (reverse rake) only looks right on gassers if you ask me, other than that it looks dumb and impractical.

                  to me, reverse rake looks like a car with dead rear springs. My car had that look when I got it, and it was retarded looking. Looks much better sitting nearly level.
