And it still has springs.

$3500 is the same as a full air ride, 4 link Kelderman air ride for my truck!

I have a John Deere tractor with a computerized hydraulic suspension that works amazingly well.  I didn't see a price in the article, but maybe the price is Canadian and the US price will be more competitive.

If they were competitive with Legends, I would sure check it out.

The price listed is Canadian, $3495, so at the current rate that is $3122 US

If they were below 2K, they'd probably sell some.

I recall talking with the manufacture at an event, don't remember if it was the dealer show. What I took away from the conversation was... to me it was a glorified air suspension of sorts that lacked any real travel. Is it more than that? I'm sure it is. I don't feel it is a justifiable 3k investment. Lower the price point and it may be worth trying.
