Today I was cruising down the freeway and hit a rough patch in the road and almost lost control of the truck.. Seems like the rear end kinda skips around on bumpy/rough patches .. Anyone else having this problem?? Wondering if some upgraded rear shocks would help this out .. Scared the crap outta me! Haha couldn't imagine what the people were thinking behind me 😳

Def been talked about here.

I know it's been talked about here but I've experienced none of these issues. Perhaps because I have a Super Crew with the 5 1/2' box and the weight is more evenly distributed or maybe because I have the FX4 shocks and LT Kevlar tires. My truck handles potholes and expansion joints like they're not even there. Because I've read it here, I've been expecting it to jump around yet... nothing.

Seems to be common for some and others don't have a problem.. For me this is the worst riding truck I have owned. But then our Michigan roads just keep getting worst.. I'm getting afraid to drive anyplace this time of year.

There seems to be lots of people with this complaint. I had a 2013 Ram before my F150, and the Ram was a nicer riding truck, but not by much. The roads here in Nova Scotia are horrible, and I have never complained about the way the F150 handles bumps. It must be an issue for some, because I've seen more than one post about people saying they felt as though they were going to lose control over bumps.... Shock issue on some trucks maybe? I don't know, mine takes bumps and washboards like a champ

Glad to hear this. I have the same truck and tire package on order.

I hope my max tow...lt tires.....hd shocks help this..

I didn't get the max tow, LT tires or FX4 because I want a nice ride... Looks like I blew this one..

Steve Osborne

best option...your buying a truck....not a car.....sacrifice ride for a truck....
