I was just at AK and heard that new tigers may be coming by next year. In the meantime, there is only one Meerkat left on the Pangani Trail (the last of the original group that opened the park). A new group is already in quarantine and could be out in the next few weeks. Once they are use to...
The only real difference in the new trucks is they have air suspension vs. coil suspension, so yes, a lot less bumpy. The cab where the driver sits is roomier and has nicer amenities (nicer seats, A.C. that actually works, etc.)
