I am interested in the auto-leveling air suspension now being offered on the RAM 3500s. It automatically levels the load so the truck won’t squat and you get the benefit of the full travel distance of the suspension.
So, my big question for you big 5er owners out there is this– if I someday own a 5er with a tongue weight of 3,000, would I notice much of a drop on a DRW 3500 WITHOUT this new system?
Here’s a video from RAM describing it much better than I can: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVw4OrFJmCw
Considering that tongue weight is ½ my payload rating, I’m not sure if I would need this. But I only have a small TT now, so I'm looking for your advice. Thanks!
If my truck was ready to be replaced, Ram's air suspension would be a major deciding factor in my buying one over the other two brands. I think it's a fantastic idea that the other two brands will need to implement to keep competitive. If you are ordering a new truck, I'd certainly go for it. As others have said, it will improve your loaded ride but more importantly soften your unloaded ride. Win on all fronts...
