OMG, I had no idea this was really a thing. I thought you guys were all kidding me, I can really have an air-suspension installed? Wow… Does anyone have this, does it make it really smooth?

Yes, smooooooooooooooth (and you can quote me :) ).

Both Bentleys had it, and yeah it works great. Tesla too. You want smooth, go air suspension. Or redneck it and get 'smaller' rims with larger sidewall Mich tires and underinflate by a pound or three.

Had it in the Lincoln Navigators I used to own. Worked fine until one line had a slight split. Compressor kept cycling.

There is a learning curve if you do your own tire rotation. Easy if you install a remote switch to turn off all the switches for self leveling feature before jacking up each end.

Harder if you let a shop do it because you need to train the tech.

Silky smooth when properly set-up.

Eight years in, time to sell.
Let the bumpy ride by the new owner's problem.
