ha....well there are good things to be said about technology too. It wasn't long ago lowboys were in the 800 to 1,000 ft lb range and now every diesel pickup out there is.

In what, 93 the dodge cummins had like 450 ft lbs of torque, now the 6.2 ford 1/2 ton has 430 something and GMs is at like 413 or similar.

I'm not trying to say it's my way or the highway on here just throwing out idea.

Again my biggest gripe on the 3.73s is 99.9% of the people on here wouldn't notice a difference driving. To me I could use 2nd - 6th all day everyday without even noticing 1st was out unless I had a jeep or boat hooked up.
