    Well if I understand correctly, it does. However a larger gear gives your engine more leverage to turn your tires with. In stop and go, longer (taller) gears don't excel very well, right? They are made for highway vehicles, and shorter gears (higher numbers) increase your engines available power at low stop and go speeds. So if you drove little highway, it would help your city MPG which would boost your average MPG.

    That is if the things I said are true and align with the traditional understanding of gears. I have no real world proof to back that up.

    Like Chris4x4 said, his mileage went up a little on his Dodge.

    There's one just like that out front of my local offroad shop. They usually have something extremely expensive out there, like a jacked up diesel, Jeep, or ATV. I was actually surprised they used a Taco.

    High school football is way better than nfl.
    This kids play the hardest. Where as NFL just gets paid to play.

    I've been saying that for years. Goes with college ball too. I love to watch a team that feels they still have something to prove rather than to collect a paycheck!

    Ordered my lift kit today. I know there will be some haters on here, but it's my truck and my decision, and I know what I need my truck to do. ;)

    I am already struggling with not enough room in a dbl cab. Dry room is better than wet room

    Why would you say spoil? I bought a 4 door cause it had 4 doors. It was this or buy a car with 4 doors. The truck seems like a better idea. Well stock anyways

    I went from an ext cab Ranger to my first DC Taco because I needed more room. I have two kids and they no longer fit in the jump seats. AC vs DC all depends on your needs. I'm sure I could live with an AC after my kids graduate and move out, that is until I have grandkids. :D Like I said it depends on your needs.

    This is true. But there are some players who play their asses off because they want a lombardi at the end of the year.
