I don't know... I feel like there may be a bit of merit to bags. Let's be honest here. A 10000 plus pound vehicle, that does not have suspension like a Unimog, is going to be limiting for technical terrain. @Dave knows this moving from his rather famous Tacoma. The focus was getting the family out and serving as the base camp for other recreational activities. I don't feel like a properly set up air bag system would ever be a cause for denying him from getting to that basecamp location.
Meanwhile, the concept of onboard air and individually controlled airbags could provide an excellent opportunity to level the camper. I'm always having to maneuver a vehicle half the size/weight of this one into a spot that provides a level sleeping position. Something tells me that doing the same in a full-size will be even less enjoyable. In the end, we are trying to fix sag here, not make it hang on the trail with his previous vehicle. That would be an unrealistic goal. Additionally, there are probably thousands of systems, sensors, and gadgets on the truck. Making an argument for keeping it simple is laughable given that the "simple" ship already sailed the moment the truck left the lot.
I agree custom coils would be the best/sexy option, but honestly, the better option IMO would have been avoiding coils and going with the 3500. Leaf springs are easier to have custom built for their application.
