Which truck is the most comfortable when loaded with a heavy camper?
Ours is... without a doubt.
Yada yada yada... if you have springs, it's a compromise. No way around it. Smooth here makes rough or incapable there.
Air suspension. Eliminate the springs. Same basic ride whether loaded or not. Change the load, truck ride height stays the same, ride stays the same. Have had these discussions before, and folks just don't get it sometimes. There are units that eliminate the stock suspension...not assist, not add on, not bags from the auto store. Air ride. It's the bomb.
A sprung 450-550/5500 riding empty is not compfy...it's painful and annoying. But, what do I know. I'm down to three of chassis versions.
For changing loads (read; camper on/off, different trailers), there is no better option than air ride.
