09 coil springs
i see the 09 1500 have rear coil springs instead of leaf springs. good idea or bad? had a 69 chevy 1/2 ton with coil springs couldnt haul much. and whats up with that muffler right behind the rear end looks like sh**t.
The ride is so soft, I was going to work yesterday and some chick in the next lane was trying to show off in her v6 charger I laid the gas on the floor not looking at the gauge and I was at 100 for like 5 minutes without realizing it, in my 06 when you were at 100 you could feel it especially how violent the wind was hitting you at 140 it felt like you were about to start floating of the road.
And I wonder with this setup if it can be tuned to 160 like the srt 10 cause 120 mph doesnt do this truck justice nor would superchips 140 cut off.

Bahhahahah that's awesome !! God I can't wait till my options become available.
Everyone keeps talking about ride quality and handling with the coil link. These are suppose to be trucks, not a Mercedes, and who the hell needs to go 100mph in a truck. 99% of people out there could never tell if the rear of a pickup was hung by leafs or coils, until you had to actually use it as a truck, and then your screwed with the whole coil thing.

Bang on ! I'm waiting to see just how much they will add to the price, I wanted to wait for the rear camera as well, but I think I'm going to forgo that extra.
If everyone used a truck as a truck all the time then there would be no inovations to the desighn only more of the same or the personal use truck would be obsolete.
A 1500 is a light duty truck, and their have been sport trucks and people hooking trucks up for several years but I guess your right it should handle like **** and not be able to make it over 60 cause its a truck meant for hauling lol.
There are 4 pickups to every 1 car down here so you might want to recalculate your numbers on who can tell the difference in their suspensions.
And if you need to ask who needs to go 100mph in a truck you sure as hell aint from texas.
