4.10 gears gave me better mpg in the city, but I lost some on the frwy. My idea would pick a higher gear like a 3.55 or 3.73. I love my 4.10's but with gas costing a fortune, I wish I would have gone a little steeper. 3.73's would be your best bet, personally.

I have had 3:55, 3:73, and 4:10 gears and I think that the 3:73's are the best OVERALL
ratio.
