Air bags on a Class A gasser
Do air bags really help with the ride and sway of the coach? Also, is it best to have them on front and back? If so, what cost can I expect for installation? Newby to motorhomes, so don't laugh!! ...

Either way air springs are a huge improvement.
After several years of having complete control of my air bags with the push of a button on my dash, I never found the need for a mechanic. The system always worked as designed and the 12 volt Air-Lift compressors that came with the air bags never failed and never needed any maintenance. I also never had an air bag failure. The installation was well within the abilities of anyone that can use basic tools. The 12 volt power for the air compressor(s) is easily spliced in to any existing wiring since they draw very few amps.
I do agree that the air bags are a huge improvement but the ability to change the air pressure as conditions changed should not be overlooked.
