Yes, the 3.31: rear gear is the very base stock gear ratio.
You can upgrade to 3.55:1 or 3.73:1, I cannot remember the option price for those though.
Now, if your car is the automatic (6R80 tranny), I think the very base stock rear gear ratio is 3.15:1. But if you want to maintain fuel economy and also keep max possible top speed, you will need the 3.15:1 because the gear ratios on the 6R80 are a bit deeper than that of the manual (the MT82). I know the 1st gear on the 6R80 is very deep. I cannot remember the overdrive gear ratio on the 6R80

Thanks for the reply back Jim. I figured it was 3:31 for the manual. I was praying it wasnt 2:73's. The 11 GT I am looking at has the stock gear ratio. I was hoping it came with the 3:73's. I can add them later I guess.

No problem. As a matter of fact, you can actually order 4.10:1 rear gears for pretty cheap, I think they are maybe $150? If you order them through your dealer and have them install it, I think the dealership might also give you a parts and warranty through themselves (independent of the Fords powertrain warranty).
