you can change gears all you want, but there is no bringing back that mpg...

I've learned to appreciate the cheap gas with my 3.55s and 35s. 10mpg with the 5.9.

I agree and the gas buddy app is your friend too....lol
Its amazing how heavy this truck is, need to upgrade the brakes this spring or sooner, as Ive had some close calls ( they wont lock up ) and idiots who cant drive, cut off and hit the brakes have come real close to having their rear bumper shoved up their

Yeah I'm not trying to gain mpg or anything, we usually take the wife's jeep unless we need a truck or just driving around town but I want 4x4 to work for the summer so we can do some camping trips

Anyone have 4.11 gearing for a Chrysler 9.25 and want some 3.55 gearing ? Hahaha
