If the front of the vehicle is lower than the rear of the vehicle, then it sits a little bit inclined to the front. This inclination is called "rake".
If the inclination is the other way around (= the vehicle is higher in the front than in the rear), that is called "squat".

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
