Thoughts on the Rancho 9000

I was looking at I believe it was the Rancho 9000 shocks, whats everyones opinion on them? I liked how they had the adjustor, so you could adjust them on the fly, with i think it was a $200 mini computer, make them harder or softer while your driving, sounded like a nice toy. Any opinions on that? Seems like everyone has Blisteins, or OME, only remember of one person with Ranchos, Are they overrated? I hear that pretty good. I have some 5000's on the rear, and its a bit hard, but Its my first rig, and dont know what the stock ride was like anyways so it could just be that i drive like an idiot. They do seem to take speedbumps well at 70mph though....

That one person might have been me, I like them. I like having the adjustability even though I rarely change them. The damping is just right so I don't need to change them anymore. For my 2nd gen, I'd get them again, plus rancho has a nice chart showing how long all the shocks are which makes it easy to find shocks for custom applications.
