Trucks today are really pretty comfortable, especially when loaded. I wouldn't spend much money trying to gild the lily. The problem with air bags is that by leveling the vehicle, they give you the illusion of increased carrying capacity. In fact, air bags do not change the weight that must be carried by the rear axle. In fact, they increase it a bit. And since the rear axle weight rating is already an issue, I wouldn't go that way. A weight distributing hitch (WDH) is the way to help this issue.
