ohh cool...thats a good bit of information to know.....i was under the assumption that gas jobbers got the 355 and 410 and the cummins had the 392.....thanks for the info

 

as for me i have 3.73

 

larry the cable guys is the man

 

the cummins could also be equipped with 3:55s....

good thing the ditch was small, any ditch around here, if i put my truck in one, it would most likely end up totaled (and a possible side of me drowning)

 

thats how ours are, but this was a *smallish* one lol. I was able to drive down to the end of it and drive out =P

 

For 1500s, the only options were pretty much (IIRC) 3.21s, 3.55s and 3.92s, with the exception of the Off Road Edition in 2000-2001. It came with 4.10s.

The 2500s/3500s, if memory serves, were offered with more gear ratio choices without going to a "special" package like the Off Road Edition.

 

i know i have to be incredibly careful when in in the Kenworth if im heading to a few of our muck fields (on the same road)...i take the back way there, so i don't have to turn the truck around in the field (which sits much lower than the road), the last road before i turn onto Tamarac (field road) has a ditch about 10 feet deep and the road's narrow, if a car is coming, my tires are on the white line....just about a foot from the ditch....gotta love back roads and class 8 trucks

 

Been there done that lol. Makes it even worse if its snowy! Or if the other person drifts in your lane.

 

eh, i don't have to deal with snow in the semis much, if at all (we don't harvest in crap weather)

and yea, some people here cant drive, it really sucks when their the one in front of you and your loaded down to 80,000+

 

Lol we haul gravel and other sh*t in snowy weather so i getta drive them in the snow, it sucks major ***** sometimes lol but i love it.
