If my compressor ever goes, i'll adapt an air-ride or firestone compressor somehow
Part of its semis are outside almost all the time, less chance of condensation getting into the air system. Another could be that Fiat is using lower quality materials. The trucking industry’s been doing this for decades, light duty had some catching up to do.
Do the Rams use N2 like Jeep does?

But the thing is, they can copy the way it's done on semis and merely use smaller parts, that's my point. There should be virtually no learning curve for them to do it. While mine are always outside, I have never once had a single issue with the air suspension in the winter.
I’ve seen tons of air system issues in winter, but with an open system that you can add airbrake antifreeze and have a good, well maintained air dryer, you shouldn’t have problems very often.

Buddies eco diesel air suspension packed it in yesterday in the cold weather. Compressor cracked and blows the fuse. Dealer told him they are changing out on an average 4 a day. Good for 2-3 years then bam! Low rider!
The 2 Ram 1500's I had, the dealer told me to stay away from it. I don't keep my trucks very long, but he said I've got to resell them and I don't need the next guy pissy with me when he has to shell out a few grand for something you don't need in the first place.
mines been pretty good this year... Was only buckboard ride once to work and that is 8kms..... Otherwise it has been flawless this year. I'm very surprised , and no other truck rides like these beauties do, it is that good.yep my dealer said he wouldn’t sell me one with air ride even if i asked lol, he wouldnt do that to a friend he said lol

surprising, your a lucky one, they do ride excellent you are right in that, i really like the idea but with my luck it would fail when i needed it to not
i always worry, that if i'm pulling the sleds to the mountains with a trailer on, and the temp dips to -20*c or colder, what would happen if it sits overnite with the trailer on.... Would it work in the morning??? That was my only worry, ever
