I have a stack of leaves on the back of my F350 thick enough to choke a horse and it rides like a lumber wagon as well, but I'm hauling a seriously overloaded gooseneck beaver tail when it's not doing camper duty and it needs serious suspension.
Been know to put 20 2000 pound round bales on the deck, 40 grand of hay at a shot...and yes, the trailer is strapped on the lower flange. Makes my 350 Ford blow some smoke.
IMO, no 1 ton will ever ride like your neighbor's Buick, and, ride has a lot to do with wheelbase. My truck is as long as you can get. 8 foot box, crew cab and old body style which means the engine is farther out front than a new truck.
My wife just wears a sports bra.
