2012 Rough Ride?
No offense but its funny when I hear people complaining about the ride in a truck being too harsh. If the suspension was any softer you would lose payload. Its a truck not an SUV. Also, my F150 is the smoothest vehicle I've driven. Even smoother than my girlfriend's 2010 escape.

It's a truck. Not a big Lincoln with an open bed.
Step up to a SuperDuty for a while if you think the F150 is brutal. You will lose 5 pounds the first week. Lol
I think the squirrely comes from the street tires

Yep, I can vouch for this. I came from a 2010 F350 SD FX4 w/camper package and a 10600 lb gvwr package. That truck was sprung and rode like hell, I even had drinks bounce out of the cup holders. My wife would not even ride in it anymore.
Went from that to a Ram 2500 diesel 4x4, a little better but not much.
This new F150 is like driving a Lincoln to me....
Compare your payload to a ram or chevy and you will see why the F150 rides more rough. My 3.7 has a payload of 1397 lbs. Trucks are designed to haul. If not, they would all have independant rear suspension with coilovers.
