    I remember reading about “active ride” suspension many years ago in Popular Mechanics... it seemed out of reach with the tech back in the day. But with cameras all over newer vehicles, and fast computing, these cars can do a lot more now.
    Thanks for sharing the video gmule :yes:

    I think Ford had that in the existing fusion sport with the 2.7 twin turbo and awd. That system worked great.
