When I lived in Chino's Hills crossing chino hills Pkwy, on pipeline were a serious set of dips. My son loved to hit them doing 50mph. He would put his hands up, and scream. With the HD suspension we would get hacked into the air something good. Had to stop due to a mild back injury, and threats of lawsuits.
Smooth ride suspension package! We've got a couple spots around the house where I brace for impact every time. I can't imagine 4 more leafs.
