    X2 this is a truck

    sure im not gonna say the trucks ride like camrys, but both the 5 lug and 6 lug trucks ride pretty good...

    5 lugs have a bit of a softer, little bouncier and floatier ride than the 6 lugs, but the front is pretty soft and absorbs most bumps with ease...the rear end's leafs tend to be a bit bouncy but nothing crazy at all..still well within a comfortable range....

    the 6 lug trucks ride stiffer and have a bit more composure on the road...even with the higher ride height. they do ride a bit stiff (compared to a domestic 1/2 ton or compact) but handles 10X better. there is little to no float compared to the domestics, and is much more nimble on the road
