We're still working on a Full House purchase, but regardless we've moved forward with a TV. I'm setting up a 2013 F450 as though it will be a pulling a FH with a 23.5k gross and 4k+ pin weight. The truck will have airbags. After reading through many posts references and manufacturer sites, I am leaning toward the Pullrite OE Series (25k max) and Trail air pin box.

I'm wondering if I can further improve smoothness of ride by going with an air suspension hitch or if that would be overkill? Very impressed by Hensley's, but I'd have to go with their biggest unit - weighing 360lbs, which would be self defeating in terms of being able to use the truck as a pickup while parked (too much work to remove) and that is an important consideration.

Interested in others opinions. Thanks!

(I also posted this question on RV.net but havent' gotten any responses yet).
