Gears Gears Gears
I am looking into getting either 3.73's or 4.10's. I've been leaning towards 4.10's but my friend says id be getting ****ty gas mileage. say I am going down the highway at 75 MPH in 5th gear. What would the RPM difference be? Also, I am 18 and this is my only car, will I get good driveability out of the 4.10's?

RE: Gears Gears Gears
This is something I've been debating on for a long time too. I've always heard that 4.10's are too low to be driving everyday. I always heard that 1st gear was a joke with 4.10's. However when I came to this forum everybody says that 4.10's are too small and they would rather have something bigger??? I did read that if you have a 5spd transmission that you can have a lower gear that with an automatic. I've never been in a mustang with 3.73's or 4.10's but since I put 20K miles on my mustang per year I think I'm gonna go with 3.73's. Just my 2 cents!
