Default Newb from Texas

Hello everyone! I'm Franco from Cypress, TX and I'm glad to be here

I have a 2003 Ram 1500 5.7L Hemi QC/SWB Laramie 4x4. Has a 4" lift-n-level from Rancho, K&N CAI, 18" Rockstars, 35" BFG A/T KO's, and lots more goodies [8D]

Before the pictures, I had a question... I am running the lift and tires on the stock 3.92 gears. I've read around and it seems like 35"+ tires should have 4.10 gears, so if I go to 4.10 would my fuel economy increase from the 8.5 hand calc'd (city) I'm getting? My dad (who is a mechanic) thinks it would either stay the same or make the fuel economy even lower, which I don't believe. Anyway, here's the pictures!
