Did Ford change this? Where are you getting your specs from?
Thx,

Go 3.73's for an auto since it has an OD of 0.75. You will tach approximately 2500 @ 75 and 2000 at 60.
4.10's are a bit too much for an automatic, but are perfect for the manual which has an OD of 0.68.
With 3.73's in an auto and 4.10s in a manual, they are basically geared the same. Technically the automatic will have a slightly lower gear ratio, but it ain't that much:
Manual final drive ratio = 4.10 X 0.68 = 2.788
Automatic final drive ratio = 3.73 X 0.75 = 2.7975
As you can see, the automatic with 3.73's has a slightly lower gear (higher number) than the manual with 4.10s.

How's 4:10's for the auto? I'm really thinking about getting it.

so i just talked to my dad, he has an 07 GT 5 speed. I told him that he had 3.31's after reading that...and he said that He has 3.55's. He said hes almost 100% sure because he read it somewhere with all the specs on the 07+ Maybe he read this before they decided to put 3.31's in the 07's??? Any ideas?
I have 4:10's on my 06 auto and love em. I don't do a bunch of highway driving but even on a couple of 150 -200 mile trips I didn't notice a huge drop in mileage. Around town the mileage drops some but that is probably due to my uncontrollable urge to hear my tires chirp when shifting to second with the hammer down

Close... Only the 05-06 GT COUPE, 5 speed came with 3.55s. The 05-06 GT VERT, 5 speed came with the 3.31 just like the auto. The only way you could get the 3.55 in 05-06 was a GT, 5 speed, COUPE.
