We’ve got a RWD, with tires inflated to 41-42 PSI. I plan on adding another 3 PSI to maximize performance and efficiency. Wife and I are in our 70s. We’ve done 3 different 130 mile round trips on CA freeways. There is one section of trip with a washboard road. We get a bit of a rattle, but nothing like a “bounce.”
It’s supposed to be a Mustang, not a Lincoln Continental touring car. We like the ride - nimble, for a heavy SUV. No barf bags required, though neither of us is prone to motion sickness.
Mustangs are supposed to have at least a modicum of “feel for the road.” I think it’s a bit like mattresses. Some prefer soft and cushy. Others firm. Still others downright hard.
It’s not a defect to have a tight suspension. It’s the way the car was designed.
It appears you bought the wrong car.
If you can’t come to terms with it, one thinks you ought to swallow the loss and move on.
You do a service by calling attention to what I view as a feature, while others may view as a disadvantage.
