In the article they mentioned Camping World by name as the source for the Bilstein Shocks ... not that it's a bad thing but they did mention it.

Thats a good point so I went back and looked on page58 in mag to see who advertisis in the mag. Roadking shocks also advertises in that mag and they were rated a 1 out of a best of 5 which was the worst rating of all the shocks. I dont guess they(mh mag) made any browny points with that company which IMO shows me they just tell it like it is even if its one of their ad companys. Speaks volume as far as Im concerned.

I've always been impressed with the nice ride I get with my Bilstein equipped P-32. Even tho the P-32 does'nt have the best reputation for handling, most of us know mine has sat @ 80 MPH, (with no wind) and goes straight with very little to no steering wheel movement. No aftermarket handling goodies needed.
It also rides pretty good on bumpy washboarded , dirt roads.
Altho a straight front axle looks more macho, the IFS makes a nice ride.
Can't compare with Konis, but I doubt I would pay more for them than Bilsteins

Go look at some other issues of MH magazine and see if RoadKing ever advertised before. In my collection I could not find one. Koni either for that matter.
