I kept seeing all the reviews that RHO has super smooth ride etc. but is something wrong with mine? or my *** to used to luxury cars, on some roads i think i can feel every slight bump on a road its starting to annoy me especially slow speeds, under <50. i dont feel it in a steering wheel just in a seet it feels like im a bobblehead (its not as bad, heh, but i definetly feel every slight bump)

It's still a truck. My RAM is the smoothest driving truck I've ever owned. Even rides smoother than my wife's 2020 Traverse.
 
even on concrete road it feels like its harsh. maybe i'll get used to it, but i dont remember it being as bad on my 2018 Laramie.

Well keep in mind your tires are pretty beefy too. That does a lot, especially E-rated tires.

But if you don't like it I'll swap you, mine rides better... I promise :ROFLMAO:

i'll keep it for a little :D maybe its adjustment period, im coming from bmw x5 m60 (before bmw i had Laramie, i missed a truck so got back to ram family) . so my buttocks might be spoiled

Yea my first time in a beefier truck was after I lifted and threw some E-rated monsters on it and it was night and day comparison to stock. Pretty rough ride. But the RHO coming stock like that it should be pretty decent, just takes some time to get used to the handling of so much tire and suspension.

What psi are you running in your tires? Anything more than 38, and it will feel harsh.

Also, what drive setting are you using? The default Auto setting sets your Bilstein shocks to the Street setting, which should be VERY cushy, almost like driving an old Cadillac. I find it to be too soft, so I changed mine to the Sport setting.
 
i think they are at 40-42 cold, i will check that tomorrow morning after they cool overnight. and i tried all the modes auto/street/baja. i tried changing auto set up to just sport suspensions etc. its cushy on the **** roads, like unpaved driveways that semis use, those are yeah truck is bouncing and its comfortable. its just slightly uneven concrete/asphalt roads that annoys me.
