If you truly want the plushest ride known to man, look at a 2017 to 2019 Buick Lacrosse. We test drove one a few months back and it was the nicest riding car I've ever been in! It's a shame GM killed it. You can find them relatively affordable with lower miles still. If I wasn't so stingy, I'd run out and drop 20k on one with less than 30k miles and have tons of smiles per mile on road trips. The trunk is huge as well.

We owners of the last gen Park Avenues (ended in ‘05), call newer Buicks “sports cars” for their comparatively stiff ride.

Your point is well taKen, however, “don’t send a truck to do a car’s job” when it comes to comfort.

When it comes to tires, I know there is a tradeoff between comfort v. performance. My wife's medical conditions require that we focus on her comfort.

I understand high-profile tires will help. What would be the highest aspect ratio to get for a Tahoe or Yukon? Do I run the risk of voiding the mfr warranty if I deviate from their stock 275/60R20SL tire (60% aspect ratio). I should not get the highest aspect ratio possible, should I?

And what about suspensions and drive trains? What should I choose to get the best possible comfort?
Are you going to tow, if so stick to the Michelin
