Yep. If you like the ride, then no issue. When I bought my truck the tire pressure was at 40. Finally figured out from posting here to use the door sticker, and for my truck it's 30. That was much better. I still found the ride a bit 'floaty', as other have with the FX4.

The FX4 shocks are tuned for off-road use, and off-road you may have a need a softer ride. Many people, me included, won't be needing that all the time. I bought the FX4 because it was available and everything else was what I wanted. I would have been just as happy with a 4x4. But anyway, that's another topic.

In any case, if you like the ride then no issue. If you find it sort of 'soft' then upgraded shocks might work. Bilstein, Eibach, Fox are all good options.

you do you.
Sorry, Tom, I was replying to VegasRanger & somehow inserted you into it. Did not mean to.:)

I have a 2019 FX4 & I have no ride quality issues.
Ditto.. 2019 SupeCab FX4. No complaints with ride quality.

But then again, I've driven 4x4 midsized trucks since the 1990's.
