All my bricks, 200,700,900 series ride pretty good on relatively good pavement - giving a rough ride to REALLY bad on a choppy interstate not far from here.

On that section of road, the 940 does best, the 245 next - the 760 worst. In fact I have owned a number of 700 series, and they all handled rough roads badly.

I did have a 720 wagon, and the front shocks had actually partially frozen - not moving freely - making for bad ride all the time.

Never replaced any springs, but I am sure that should be considered in trying to get the best ride you can get.
