I concur.  My vehicle has an "official" clearance of only 7.5in.

It has actually managed plowing through 8" snows quite well.

But over time (12 years, in fact), I'd swear it's looking a bit lower
than that.  I currently have a few heavy boxes of books in the back
which are probably contributing to the lower profile.

These are pictures of a very large dump of snow around my property back
in Dec 2007, but it looked very much like this yesterday, after it got
cleaned up a bit:

My vehicle is in a few of the shots.
