Is it ok to drive a Lincoln mark viii with the air ride switch turned off?

Yes, it is generally okay to drive a Lincoln Mark VIII with the air ride switch turned off, but it may lead to a firmer ride and reduced suspension performance. The air ride system is designed to provide better handling and comfort, so turning it off could affect ride quality. Additionally, if the air suspension is inactive for an extended period, it may lead to issues with the system when turned back on. Always check for any warning lights or issues before driving.
