Which suspension???

[HawkeyeRaptor1]

must be something wrong with your truck then, cause every other thread concerning the streetability of this truck, people have said its the smoother and comfiest truck they have ever driven.

and at the end of a the day, its still a damn truck. you want a smooth ride go get a car or something.

I have taken it to the dealer and they said per ford, it is meant for off road and sent me on my way. I have had trucks my whole life and know what they ride like. Driving down the road in the city, I shouldn't be bounceing up and down in my seat. I also have an 2012 escalade and this isn't even in the same atmosphere. I just wanted feedback on suspension systems. Is there a need to be a *****?

Was I really being a *****? I was simply offering my views, and relaying information I have see posted a zillion times on here.
The raptor IS an offroad truck, and NOT an escalade. wanting the same type of ride, just wont happen. Maybe you bought the wrong truck.

truly sorry if i cam across as a *****, but I dont see how I have.
But I will remember to hold my replies to myself in threads you post from now on.

He's Canadian. Not possible.

lmao. idk. apparantly I can?

lol, the guy made the exact same thread basically 2 days ago, complaining about how rough it was, everyone told him thats how it is at slower speeds on road, its a truck. and it is meant for higher speeds and is smooth going fast ofroad.

then he makes yet another thread, and gets mad when I tell him the exact same thing everyone else told him?

I remember. You cannot please everyone unfortunately.

Yes, I did make a thread two days ago and I appreciated the feedback that was provided ... that my expectations were not aligned with the truck. As such, I have decided to try and upgrade the suspension to help align the truck with my expectations. Apparently it is not exceptable here. I'm not complaining about the ride but since you brought it up, the ride is the same going 70 as it is going 15, how fast do you have to drive for it to smooth out???? I will just visit my local shop. Thank you for all the help

... I was trying to give the vendors on here business, they can thank you for losing it

There is nothing wrong with wanting to adjust the suspension for your individual needs. Obviously, its a Raptor and its made to not only ride well on the street, but also be capable for off-road too. If you drive on broken pavement a lot, it can be jarring. I have some broken pavement by me and if you hit it straight on, its very jarring. On smooth road, its fantastic. I think what you're looking for is for a smoother ride that absorbs the bumps and broken pavement better. Nothing wrong with that at all. I'm sure the upgraded shocks the vendors offer will more then accomadate you. I will be looking to upgrade my suspension in the future as well. Not that I dont like it the way it is right now, I just want the max potential for when i'm ready for some off-roading.

BTW, my cousin has a 2012 Platinum and it does ride very nice and smooth, but it is boring to drive compared to the Raptor. I couldnt drive the Platinum everyday.

Do you need me to call you a whaaa whaaa whambulance?

You asked a question and most people tried their best to answer it. Including 6.2 and me. And now your calling him a ***** and saying this is the reasons vendors won't get your business... a little childish don't ya think?

Maybe the Raptor just isn't for you, or maybe a suspension upgrade will be just the ticket.

Or maybe you should check out the Ram Runner, I hear they are smooth as butter

If you decide to lay off the poor me, you're all so mean routine, I would suggest hooking up with some local guys to ride in their trucks as a comparison.
