airstream ride?
Is there a bumper pull manufacture that builds a trailer that tows as well as an Airstream?

Airstreams pull nicely because of their aerodynamics AND their Torflex suspension, without needing shocks. Most of the AS can be towed with the newer half tons, which ride better than 3/4 & 1 Tons. The latest gen RAMs have coil suspension and ride really smooth as compared with their previous gen trucks. Test drive the half tons by Ford, GM, Toyota, & RAM and decide for yourself.
My opinion is, coil, springs belong on the back end of a Buick, not a truck.
I still remember the old Chevy / GM pickups from the 60's with coils in the back, going down the road and looking like a pogo stick. Work good when the shocks are new but when the shocks start wearing out, the ride gets, shall we say, bouncy.....
and shocks wear out faster with coils than leaves because coils have no inherent friction dampening like leaves do. The very act of leaves moving against each other and the friction produced by that produces suspension dampening, not so with coils at all.
You really need to ride in a heavily loaded ram 1500 wit 4 corner coil air suspension. Game changer.
Maybe but it's not a high enough GVCW for my needs.
