Agreed. I still get around 18 or so mpg with the 4.30's, and that's sitting in a lot of traffic, driving mixed highway and city.

RE: Gas mileage with 4.10's

mileage is the least of my concerns, I'm going with 3.55 cause I've heard a kb with 10 psi will have major traction issues with 4.1's and have a hard time with 3.73's

Thing is that, here inFlorida, driving 70 on the Interstate will get you run over by a semi. We drive 70 on back roads, and only slow down to 65 on dirt roads...

Lol, yup. Was on the interstate yesterday in a pack that was doing 80-85 (about 8 of us) in my dad's truck, pass a group of 6 troopers (they were flying the plane) they didn't even bother... Even if you drive 75 on the interstate nowadays you'll get ran over in Florida... It's out of control.

ON TOPIC, I can't wait to get my 4.10's, just spent $1k to lower it, though, so the gears will have to come in the near future.

RE: Gas mileage with 4.10's

The performance gain you will see from the 373 to 410 is deffinately worth the extra gas. You would have to spend atleast 500$ in bolt on's to keep a 373 car hanging with a stock 4.10 car. (excluding spray)
