Question 4.10 gears

I was considering putting 4.10 gears in my 95F150 it currently has 3.55 limited slip.

My question is
How much will this affect my mpg currently i am getting 10-12 but most driving is short hops.

Thanks
Chris

Depends on how big of a tire you going to run. If you are going to a larger considerably larger tire then it won't be that bad. Howerver any time you go a lower ratio you will see some drop in mileage. But with overdrive the patient (your wallet) should live.

Don't forget the front gear.
