i have 4.10's , you can knock off 250 from what i run at any given speed in the same gear.

i can't think of the last time i was only going 65 on the freeway, but doing a little over 80 i turn 3000 on the nut

w/ the ac i still get 21 mpg in my 5-speed, you will get about the same , no better mileage that you'll see , just a little softer launch, and you won't be able to lift the tires.
