I did have the air pressure up to the max on the tires but backed it off to the ford recommended 36. It does better but still a little rough. I guess its part of it! Thanks for everyone's help.

I have an 08 XL with the HD payload package. My truck rides great. It rides better than my 86 F150 or my 94 F150 ever did.

Gotta put my .02 in here...My 07 XL LWB V-6 Automatic rides better than the Wife,s Impala. It is showing 48,000 on the clock.It evidently has the OEM tires on it,Michelin.Pics can be seen at Pictures by n5926g - Photobucket I may be mistaken about them being the OEM tires,as I bought it lightly used.The original owner could have swapped them out.

Just checked the link....excuse the pic of the climate control.Bought it to possibly upgrade the Temp control system,and found out(after the fact) that it wouldnt be economically feasable.Gonna list THAT on ebay!
