No... I didnt take your question as such... ... I should have thrown is a SMILEY face or somthing... Im sory if I came out a bit harsh, If I felt you where a "nuisance" I would not have responded at all.... but I wanted to be clear so you understood me 100%.... the gears are freakin SWEET!

SPEED SAFE, AIR RAM

I was wondering about gears as well. It is getting to be a little annoying having to really step on the gas just to get up to 60mph. The 3.55's are horrible in these trucks. I am thinking about going with the BFG All Terrain tires in about a 33-34" height. I have the leveling kit, and the exhaust is the next thing to go on. So at about 80mph, what RPM's are you at in 5th.. My '03 has the 5spd, and it's a 4.7 Magnum V8.
