Whatever you do DON’T buy a 2500 Ram! They have a coil spring rear suspension that wouldn’t necessarily suck but they are mounted too close together. The truck sits on a too-narrow suspension platform and they handle unbelievably terrible with a camper.
A buddy of mine made that expensive mistake.
Coil springs out back are meant for luxury cars, not trucks. Bad choice all around.
You should spend some time in one before speaking in generalities. Agree, high CG load like a TC = coils aren’t the right suspension.
For “in the bed “ loads the coil 2500s do great.
Yeah! Coils on trucks is crazy. Who'd ever think that having coils on a high CG truck would be a good idea?
Oh wait...
