Great info! Thanks!!I currently have 4.88 on 35's. with the V6. I am very happy with the performance on and offroad. I do see 8th gear all the time. In town driving I average about 13MPG's. She will def get up and go. I have not had any problems on the trails at all. Lots of torque and climbed right up hells gate in moab without breaking a sweat. Highway mpgs is about 15 to 16 at 65 to 70mph. Anything over that an mpgs begins to tank. at 70mph I set at about 2000 rpms. Hope this helps a bit.
8spd auto or 6spd manual? Reading about your mileage or lack there of has me quite confused because I get better mileage both in the city and the highway in my Sport S with the stock 3.45's on 35's. Strictly city driving has me at 16/17mpg, highway has me 20/21, and that's without 8th gear. I'd certainly expect mileage to improve if I bumped up to 4.88's.I currently have 4.88 on 35's. with the V6. I am very happy with the performance on and offroad. I do see 8th gear all the time.
