Ordered through Amazon last night. Hellwig direct has it for $280 and Amazon was at $260, so I figure I'd rather get the benefits of a better ride than waiting until who knows when just to save an extra $10-$20 wasn't worth it to me.

Sounds good...I'm in no rush and looking to buy around $215-$230

Keep me posted... i see Discount Bandit offers it at $256.27 with free shipping.
I had never heard of discount before yesterday. The reviews I read led me away from them. It seems they are a middle-man site, and absolve themselves of assistance if the buyer has an issue with the seller. Not worth the extra $10 saved IMO

I have bough BAK tonneau cover from discount bandit about $150 cheaper than I could find anywhere else. Indeed they are just middle man and in case of troubles you have to follow up with the actual seller they match your with. Still they don't do anything wrong and they did save me money. But Indeed for 10 usd difference you might just go to Amazon...

I wouldn't hesitate to buy from discount bandit. They've been great to me. I ordered a set of amp power running boards for my Jeep gladiator. They arrived damaged. Contacted them through email and they were very responsive. Another set got shipped out and they sent me a return label for the other set. Easy as can be. Not to mention thir price was a couple hundred cheaper than other sites.

Good to know! Did you deal with discount bandit directly or with the matched seller?

Curious if it makes pot holes more jarring on an air suspension truck. I prefer the plush ride over quick lane changes.

If I had one gripe about this truck it'd be the body roll on flat curves, so I pulled the trigger on this. Hope my expectations aren't too high from all the fan reviews. 🤨
