Rear Suspension
We are upgrading in the Class C group. Is there a difference between leaf spring versus air ride? Please comment on the contrast between the two. Thank you!

The difference is like comparing the ride of a cadillac to a ww2 jeep,the jeep has leaf springs.

I had a Jayco dealer tell me today that Greyhawk suspension was better than air ride. Any comments?
