Ride comfort between the 4x4 Sport, Limited, and Off Road?

picturethis · Jan 30, 2020

I own a sport, 69K miles, drove a OR for about a month while the sport was in on a recall, I definitely liked the ride of the OR more, softer on the trails, beaches and those potholes. But would I trade my sport for an OR now, no! I like my Sport LB

These threads always start innocently but by the end it's always skewed one way.

I agree with those that said to have him test drive each to get a feel. Btw, all three have different suspension setup.

I have a sport, bought it because 98% of my driving is on pavement. I find the ride is much more firm then my wifes suv, and do love how it holds the corners and stability while maneuvering/breaking. You generally do feel bumps and stuff in the road, but I wouldn't say it's too harsh or anything, it's just a tighter setup for those who like responsiveness.

i'd say drive them all and see what he likes..

i can say from personal experience that a sport (my son had a 2017 sport) has a pretty firm ride. borders on harsh to me, but it handles the turns and all really flat and nicely. the offroad (i had a 2017 offroad) has a lot smoother ride but felt floppy in corners compared to the sport. not dangerous feeling or anything but way less stable feeling then the sport. suspensions are set up for totally different things which is why such a difference.. i have no experience with a limited. if i had to guess i'd think it would ride better then a sport and handle better then the offroad but i really don't know.....

it depends on how where you drive. we only get Sport in Mexico, and while it does handle nicely, its shakes you to the bone with every imperfection on the road. it can get tiresome after a while. i read people complaining about the soft OR setup. i wish i had that option. its a truck, not a sports car on a twisted mountain road. Besides, Crawl control and locking diff sure sound WAY better than a fake scoop.
