There are 2 settings above offroad height - extended and super extended. Extended height cannot be selected, the car has to detect that it has 'bottomed out' (or floated Whistle) then it will enter extended mode automatically. Once in extended mode you can select super extended by putting your foot on the brake and holding the up lever for a few seconds.

Not exactly - you can put the car in offroad height then try lowering with an object underneath, so it thinks it's bottomed out, or jacking the car will sometimes put it into extended.

Wouldn't recommend driving with it all the way up though - you can damage some steering components....
