SAS ride quality on interstate highways?

[DemonGT]

Does the SAS package make interstate driving a issue? Im between a Lux outerbanks without OR without SAS.

It will be a mall crawler so i figure the stock outerbanks wheels would be better but the wife and i both really like
the look of the SAS package and id like to have the 4A for her convenience.

You can get 4a without sasquatch. That being said, the sasquatch package will drive just fine on the highway.

Sounds like you absolutely do not need Sasquatch.

You can get 4A without and you can pick up a set of Sasquatch take off wheels for cheap.

It might even ride smoother with the Bilstein’s. (Sasquatch shocks)

Just ordered an Outer Banks with LUX and the only way to get 4A is with the SAS package. If you want 4A without SAS you will need to step up to the Badlands.

I have a 23 OBX with SAS, never will need it, but love the look, and love the way it drives at 75-80MPH.

SAS is great on the highway, highly recommended even if you’re not wheeling everyday

Sasquatch is really good on the highway. Smooth ride and tracks arrow straight, even in a 2 door. Just drop the tire pressure from the recommended (ridiculously high) 39psi to 35psi and you'll be good to go.

Just yesterday I did 500 miles on the interstate in my SAS 4dr 2.3 auto. First long trip I’ve done in it and it’s a bit noisy but road manners were awesome. Drove great. Seats suck but interstate driving is no concern with the SAS package. I averaged 21.3 with a crazy headwind. Not bad.

Seats suck

This is my biggest complaint. Anything over 75 or 80 miles and it starts to get uncomfortable. I need to tilt the seat back a little to get more support under my knees. This is where a six way seat is so much better for me. I hate to put a cushion in my seat, so I will see if I can raise the front about 1/4in or so and see if that helps. A few washers should do the trick.

To each their own. I think the seats are very comfortable.

I'm 6'2" 200 lbs.

I came from a Lexus GX 460 which is extremely comfortable.

I've owned many Volvos, which have the best seats in the industry.

Just did a 1200 mile round trip to see eclipse. Very comfortable.

I promise you, guarantee you, if you think you like/want SAS, get it, you won’t be disappointed.

This works. Did mine, and have forgotten about how flat the bottom seat cushion laid.

Have you tried the seat jackers/washers lifting the front of the seat up fix?

Not yet. I always forget to fix it while I am at the shop doing routine stuff. I always remember when my back starts to hurt... gotta get it done at home one evening. I just googled seat jackers. Never knew they existed. THANKS!!!!!
