I'm in the same boat you are. I drive about 85% city/country and 15% highway. I have 33" tires and decided that 4.56's would be perfect for me. I have the 4.6L, so it's gutless, and the 4.56's would keep it in a little higher RPM range.

But, those plans have gone out the window in favor of 1-ton axles, 42" tires, and 5.38's
