Default New appreciation for the Mag Ride in the 2021

I just drove the '09Z to run some errands. Only trip it's taken out of the neighborhood since I got the '21. I've never had any complaints about the ride in the '09, but by comparison, it felt like a covered wagon compared to the '21.

I have the Z51 and Mag Ride, but when it's in Tour mode, it's like driving a Cadillac. But even in full race mode, it's still smoother than the '09. Great job Chevy! This car continues to impress the crap out of me.

Drove the '09 because our community still has standing water in the roads, plus it rained, and it is SO MUCH EASIER to clean. Would have taken the Tundra, but...I still have about 1300 #'s of sod in the back of it. I might need a 5th car.

Somebody need to dig up the pic of my John Deere with the pull behind trailer that had the failure with the rocks.

That's cool, my C4 definitely rides better than my C3 did...and it certainly rides better than the '63 Studebaker Lark my friend had.

I had a 1970, 440, 3x2 Roadrunner. Don't really remember, but it probably rode like most any other car back then.

But the drum brakes? Wow. If you hit them at 100 MPH you better have a LOT of room to stop.
