[QUOTE="SLE, post: 456717, member: 3889"] Yeh, unless your towing really heavy or through the mountains, these new diesels make so much power and torque you probably won't notice the taller gearing. Took a 22' 6.7 PS to the mountains 3 times this winter to ride sled with a 30ft steel enclosed trailer. Full of gear, propane, tools and sleds, it's a bit over 10k lbs. 3.31 gears didn't care in the slightest. 1,050 ft lbs of torque is like a cheat code with only 10k lbs. Ran as fast as 85mph in MT without any issue, I think it downshifted 3 times the whole trip. Made 9-11 mpg depending on speed and direction of travel. They sure make towing enjoyable. [/QUOTE]
