    Default Does the F3 Limited have self adjusting suspension?

    As the title states, does the F3 Limited have a self adjusting suspension like on the RT Limited, or just a valve to add/remove air like on the base RT and the F3T?

    From the 2021 and 2022 operator's guides, don't know about earlier models; too lazy to check.
    "Limited Models
    The rear suspension is calibrated for a
    general riding and will adjust automatically, using an integrated compressor, while riding to maintain this
    preset when the road conditions
    change or if the vehicle load changes
    (adding a passenger, riding with more
    cargo etc.)."
    Artillery lends dignity to what would
    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    I had a ‘16 F3-L, and it was manual, Blacklightning. I believe the Limiteds became auto from ‘17 on. (Along with the trunk).

    Even if they have the 'automatic' ACS, do they still have a Schraeder valve under one of the seats? I know the earlier model RT's do, but haven't been able to confirm that for the 'automatic' F3's or the later model '20+ RT's....

    I can confirm that there is a Schraeder valve on the ‘21 RT-L, Peter. I had a Fobo unit on it when I was trying to work out if the auto adjust system was working.
