Default Good highway shocks?

Hey guys... My baby is getting close to 70k on the odo and the ride seems to be getting pretty bad. My truck is a 2wd pavement queen. I pound out 130 miles per day commuting to and from work, and I'm just looking to throw some shocks on that will soften up the ride a bit. There's a lot of threads on here talking about shocks for lifted trucks, and trucks that tow a lot, but can't find any suggestions for what I'm looking for. So does anybody have a suggestion??

I'm considering Monroe Reflex for mine. At 100K, though, the ride is still pretty solid on the OEMs. Maybe in the spring, I'll put some new shocks on.

Reflex is a great shock for a 2wd truck...

No problem, I've never read a bad user review on the Reflexes when they are used on a 4x2 or a primarily pavement 4x4...
