06 V10 - 4.10 gears and rpm
My 01 E250 2V had 3.73 gearing. I'm now looking at an 06 3V F250 with 4.10 gearing. The van didn't have a tach so I had no idea what the rpms were.
What are most of you typically turning for rpm's at highway speed if you have 4.10 gearing? I know tire size (this looks to have some oversize tires - not sure the size) will affect this too.
Most of my driving will be back country roads - 50-60 mph. Occasional freeway time - speed limit is 70 but I used to drive the E350 at 65.

The 5R110 w/ 4.10 gears and 35" tires you are looking at approx 1816rpm @ 65mph.(in OD) If the truck had 4.30 gears you would be looking at 1905rpm at 65. At 50mph in OD 1397 for the 4.10s and 1465 for the 4.30s. Nice for highway driving empty but not optimal for towing.

Funny what a fraction of an inch of tread depth can do.

Gears don't affect the mph output but larger tires will. A sensor reads a tone ring which is bolted on the carrier in the rear diff. My speedo read fast until I put 285/75R16 tires on it, just under 33" diameter. Speedo compared to GPS is right on now.(taken at several speeds) Maybe Ford just sets the speedo for the largest tire for the MY? For later trucks that were available with 20" wheels that is just below 35". If the speedo reads faster than you are going there really isn't much liability there vs if the speedo reads slow.
