[QUOTE="Yellowyj, post: 712927, member: 3504"] I have a very similar truck 2001 F250 4x4 CC SRW long bed auto with 315/75/16 and have done the stage 1.5 injectors, TS Chip, S&B cold air intake, and 4" turbo back exhaust and am still running the 3.73 gears and stock transmission. I tow mostly local with my gooseneck and farm tractor and equipment which puts my gross combined around 19K-20K depending upon what all is with me and it does pretty good. Some of the steeper hills on the two lane back roads make me wish I had 4.10 gears, but for the most part I am pleased with the 3.73's and haven't had any troubles pulling on the interstate or major highways. If I ever have to get into the differentials on my truck I will probably change to 4.10's, but unless it breaks I will probably just leave it as is. I might eventually go to a slightly bigger turbo, but that too falls into the it's not broke yet category. I daily drive my truck and like the way it runs empty up and down the interstate. I think I am local to you, in the Hayden area, if you would like to meet up to drive my truck on day to compare to yours. Mines not the nicest truck around by no means, but it works for me and gets driven everyday. [/QUOTE]
