LOL ... true. It's all perspective, right?Oh no its never too 'harsh' you would have to define harsh
If you look at it in terms of MPG four-seven-ohs are a pretty harsh set of gears for a 33" or 35" tire, assuming transmission and transfer case gearing akin to Jeep. Engine RPM would be unusually high to be consistent with acceptable fuel consumption.
However, Ford could have a V-6 that is more fuel efficient at a higher RPM. They could have a higher transmission gear set. They could have an overdrive transfer case that is like 0.75:1 in high range, and 3:1 or 4:1 in low range. If so, four-seven-ohs would make sense.
