Is there any reviews or videos out showing off these 3.2s on a RR?
Not that I know of. It seems like there’s really not a whole lot of info out on them right now.

I will be hitting some whoops and jumps with them as soon as I get them installed. There will be videos

What is the expected outcome of these 3.2s, smoother ride due to more travel?
Simply a lift with a similar ride to the stock live valves.

Will these be plug and play with the truck in place of the OE Fox Live valve shocks or will the stock system be 100% abandoned and an entirely new system would need wired in and setup with a separate controller for the new 3.2 live valves?

According to fox there is not anymore travel. They wanted them to work with factory fenders and liners and not tear anything up.

They are plug and play just like the factory coils.

They will level the truck and ride better over rough stuff and jumping due to being a bigger coil over, valving, springs, external reservoirs.

My 24 RR has around 12-13K miles on it now and has settled a bit and in doing so has gotten a bit stiffer in terms of ride quality.

I notice it more now that I also have a new 25 model that I switch back and forth with which one I am driving on regular bases.

Driving the same roads to and from work, or around town, I have noticed I can really feel the potholes and expansion joints in the pavement a lot more in my 24 RR.

I also have noticed that no matter what shock mode I put my 24 RR in, they all pretty much feel exactly the same now. Not that I can tell a huge difference in the modes on the 25 RR, but I think I can tell a little bit of difference between shock modes on the newer 25 RR. I think I use to be able to tell when I changed modes on the 24 RR.

The stock ones do give up pretty quick with any serious off-roading. I've added foutz Motorsports hydraulic bump stops in the front to help. These things are only going to get so good with the limited travel they come with.

I can tell the biggest difference in sport mode. The on-road handling is so much flatter and more positive.

My 24' feels pretty much like it is in sport mode all the time.
Which mode is supposed to be the most plush or smoothest ride.
I had assumed it was off-road mode, but I can't hardly tell it apart from normal even on the newer 2025 RR.

I agree. I’ll probably be adding bump stops at some point. But the Race Series suspension from Fox will probably be the best thing you can get without adding travel. Maybe one day I’ll do long travel and all that but I drive my truck everyday.
