Oregon | I noticed that the '12 Ford is smoother than the '07 Ford- different spring rates and much more refined. That said, IF ride is your question- a solid axle will never do as well on ride as the GM IFS- lower unsprung weight being the most obvious reason. Think of it this way, which would you rather cross a pivot track with, a Deere ILS or a suspended solid axle?
In terms of pickup front ends, there are obviously other strengths to the solid axle set-up, but the GM front has the best ride over washboards.
