If you regularly tow or will run taller than 32" tires go with the 4.56 gears. I ran 4.88s with 32" for 2 years and the V-10 was a total beast! Now with 35"s the effective ratio is back down around 4.39, still great for towing heavy. I have repeatedly seen towing tank averages of 8 to 9.25 MPG with our 41' 11k TT dragging behind the EX. V-10s love gears!
