If you're going to use it like a regular pick up pull some leafs out and put a set of air bags on it. I can't tell h oe many leafs you have currently because the angle of the pictures. It'd be the best of both worlds. I haven't decided if that's the route I'm going to go or not with mine. I also have onboard air too.
I pretty well plan to use it as a normal pickup, and for some towing. I'm not too sure that I can pull leaves as simply as a normal spring pack, on these medium duty trucks it seems half the pack comes into the whole from each end. It actually doesn't ride TOO horribly, just a hair stiffer than a one ton truck in my opinion. One thing this truck does not have is an air compressor, which is alright with me but would be nice to have at some point. Air horns would be fun
