Has anyone test drove both on same wheel size and mind to share which is more comfortable especially on poorly maintained roads.

I am stuck in this big life dilemma, some say DHP and some say AIR.

Thanks

I test drove a 50i with air then ordered a 50i with dhp. Just got it monday but initial impressions are it seems to ride a little stiffer and possibly could be a little noisier .Bumps like expansion joints seem a little harsher. My wife commented she thought the 50i with air rode better if not the same as her audi q7 prestige with air also. I cant comment on handling since i just got the car monday and am keeping it in comfort mode and taking it easy.

Air is most definitely more “floaty”. It’s the nature of the ride.

Thank you, Air for me then. Since I am not choosing DHP and Adp Sus Pro isn't it better for me to stick with 4.0 LOL.

Yeah, if you aren't going with DHP I can't imagine a reason to get the v8. Stick with the six and benefit from the better fuel economy. I realize for some it doesn't matter, but the range on road trips is a nice advantage as well.
