You think highway driving with 3.55 and 31s are bad? That's one of the best ratios for mpgs, besides the hilly area of pittsburgh where I go to school around, I love it. Around town isn't bad either, worst part for me is offroading on rocks.

 

i currently have 33x10.50 km2 and 3.55 gears, and it is horrible. its just above the threshold of being un-drive-able. that being said it dose look killer and it will perform better than it looks when i do 4.88's in the spring
i am not worried to much about mileage, it will probably be better in town because i wont have to gun it all the time.

 

I wouldn't call it "un-driveable." I've been running 3.55s with my 33s for two years now. I'm just waiting on the funds to re-gear. I may even throw in an OX locker when I do, just to save on labor so I don't have to open my differentials twice.

It's sluggish unless you punch it, sure, but the 4.0L will still haul *** if you do.

 

thats where im at right now, and we have lots of mountains where i live. its bad with 1000 pounds of armor hanging off of it

 

Yea you're a little different than I will be and I understand that everyone's driving experience will be a little different. I will be adding sliders soon but I still and plan on keeping the stock bumbers but have all the stock skids so I'm lighter than you are and I'll be in DE where it's all flat. Only time I'll see a real hill is offroading most likely.
