What is the most comfortable (best ride quality, comfy seats, etc.) truck when driving off road? The kind where your non-enthusiast spouse won't mind being in the passenger seat on a bumpy road?

I'm talking about light to moderate off roading, forest service roads, washboard, unexpected bumps. I am not talking about high speed desert running and I am not talking about rock crawling.

From what I have read, the Ford Raptor is the ultimate when it comes to soaking up the bumps.

The Tacoma TRD Pro seems to get high marks but isn't quite as good.

Based on reading reviews the ZR2 is great on road and great and high speed desert running but is actually a bit stiff in the slower stuff.

What else?

I know tires (SL or C load) and airing down are critical, but the vehicle matters too. What have you driven that soaks up the bumps off road?
