Trees grow a fair bit up north, but only to a certain height on the mountain sides...
Funny how we are all different my first thought was did the suspension bottom out or was that within the parameters it was designed for. Sure there's several struts but that's 65 tons landing.
As to bouncing about I am no suspension expert but I would think the rebound control is very important in a vehicle of that weight to dampen the movement otherwise it would start oscillating.
