Just my 2 cents... You bought a truck without first educating yourself and conducting your due diligence. You bought a truck after a short test drive with a vehicle that displayed a warning light. You are now unhappy with your expensive purchase made without researching the vehicle.
Too bad, so sad. If you are so unhappy with the truck, bite the bullet and trade it in on something that you like. After 19 pages of bickering I can't quite remember... but don't you pull a relatively small camper? If you are concerned about a gentle ride (and their isn't anything wrong with that), perhaps you are in the market for a half ton?
Bottom line, the truck is gonna ride the way the truck is gonna ride. If it is too harsh for you, you probably aren't going to be able to modify it enough to make it work for you. Their comes a time in everyone's life where they have to eat crow, admit a mistake and move on from it. This might be that time...
Gary Kelderman truck and farm equipment had the same experience and did something about it.....read on:
n the 1970s, Gary was dominant in the Tri-State Truck Pullers Association modified class, winning the championship all three years with his Hemi-powered pulling rig, which was nothing short of an “engineering masterpiece.” What started out in Gary’s one-stall “hot rod” shop has grown into a 30-acre, 100,000 square ft manufacturing facility. Today they are considered a leading supplier of innovative products to the agricultural industry including corn planter hinge kits, planter tools, and marker systems for John Deere planters, hay raking equipment and Corn Reels. The company has changed and evolved considerably over the past 40 years and is known and respected for its diverse products offerings.
Two decades after its inception, Kelderman Air Suspension Systems came into existence when Gary bought a new Dodge Cummins diesel. Unhappy with the ride, Gary put his mechanical mind to work and developed the first Kelderman Air Suspension System.
It didn’t take too long for the news to travel. Practically overnight, Dodge trucks all across the country were riding on air. Today, Kelderman provides systems for Ford and Chevrolet vehicles as well as Dodge, and has had over 50 magazine features and dozens of television editorial stories covering their amazing air ride kits. Many NASCAR racers and sports celebrities are the proud owners of tricked out Kelderman rides.

By the way I did not force you to read 19 pages (LOL) and I have not been bickering for 19 pages. When I'm being "quoted" over and over it looks like it.
I'm more "defending" my stance at this point and glad to see a truck enthusiast like Gary Kelderman had the same "ride" experience with a Dodge Cummins and did something about it. We are going to invest in his product.
oh...........and it's not "too bad....nor too sad" BECAUSE......
With disappointment comes INNOVATION!
