Airmatic Question
Can anyone tell me when airmatic was discontinued for the R's? Ive seen like no late model examples with it.
I'm looking for one for the wife and test drove an '11 with air in the rear. Holy smokes, forget a minivan. 4 corner air must be like riding on a pillow. I don't mind the potential of having to replace with Arnott suspension down the road so having full Airmatic doesn't scare me.

I believe they built them with the 4 corner air ride as an option right until after the model was discontinued. It must have been an expensive option as only 1 in 10 may have the 4 corner air ride.Just spotted a 2013 with this option.

Im seeing even less than 1 in 10 with airmatic.
But maybe I'm using the wrong measure. Of all the R's for sale I only have seen a few with the little shock absorber icon on the left front dash button and the little car icon on the right.
That is the indicator for full airmatic, yes?
