"It's funny how you guys have to defend the ram for whatever reason. It's a great pulling pickup. I was close to buying one. Chose GM cause it drives better unloaded. GM has their weaknesses too, a lot were addressed in the new generation but still the RAM does some things better. Such as the air ride, the big screen, etc.."
I can tell you you did not compare a RAM with rear air ride to a GM because I have ridden in a 3500 GM SB SRW and my DRW with air rode better for sure.
The trick to finding out what rig rides the best it to air the tires say my truck with rear air ride to 80 front and 35 rear. Do the same with the Ford and GM. Report back.
Funny you are using the internet to determine the drivability of the AISIN. You need to run the hell out of the truck when new and the trans will shift very nicely, AISIN and the 68rfe learn from how you drive them.
People said the 68 is horrible for shifting, I say BS as I had one for 68k and it shifted VERY nicely.
Drive like an old lady and the trans will give flair shifts for one.
