suspension

Hi,this is my first post. after 120K miles my nissan is ready to be given a well deserved break. There's nothing wrong with it other than it's 10 years old and i've been bitten by the new car bug. I've been looking online at different cars and i would like to know which cars have a really sturdy suspension system. My route to work is a truck route so my car takes a beating with jacked up roads. I am looking to spend between 22K-25K. Any input will be greatly appreciated.

thank you

Re: suspension

Usually the larger and heavier a car is, the softer ride it has. You said 'car' so Im assuming you dont want a truck/suv, which would give you the best ride quality over rough roads. Smaller cars suffer from a bumpy ride due to light weight, firmer suspensions, and smaller wheels/tires. Try to drive some cars over a rough section and see what you like.
