Ride quality with and without tow package...

[Crossefire00]

All,
My Telluride is due in on August 18th. However, my dealer has the same color exterior/interior SX-P on the lot and the buyer may want to put off the purchase as he's also buying a house. Dealer offered to sell me his and sell him the one that I ordered. The difference is, I ordered the tow package and he did not. I do not plan to tow often but thought I'd add it since I was ordering and felt that the cost was negligible. My question is, does the vehicle feel any different in its ride quality with the Nivomat shocks used in the tow package vs the Mando shocks used without the tow package? I know that this has been discussed in other threads but my question isn't about ride height or towing. It's purely about ride quality. And I have to make the decision fairly quickly. Thanks for any and all help!

Test drove both and found the Mundo shocks smoother on rough roads or poorly maintained roads. Also noticed less front end dive in certain sudden brake applications.
