IIRC the hummer h2 or h3 come with 4.56's and 33's from the factory and they don't have
any trouble with it.

Not entirely true. The 545rfe transmission has two overdrive gears with the second overdrive
having a 0.67:1 ratio. Our transmission has an overdrive gear with a 0.69:1 ratio. Not much
difference.

Still gives them around 70 rpm -ish difference between the trucks. I agree not much but still is a notable difference.
