The original poster has a TRX4. It's a 4 wheel drive with the 3.92 gears. Big difference from all the guys posting with 2wd or 3.55 or 3.21 gears.

I have the opposite problem. I hate city and love the highway. I have a 2wd, but I don't know my gear ratio off hand. I'll check my paper work later today.

I made a bigger post earlier but on the interstate with no wind I see 17.5 +/-.2 regularly. If I have any headwind it drops down to as low as 15.3. This is driving at 70-72mph mainly on the Florida flat roads.

See I'd be happy with that 17. This one only yields at the most a 15.8 on the highway thats it. Thats the only thing I dislike about this new model. My 06 2wd (yes I know 2wd are better for gas) but In tow in was bad, highway 20+.
