TRD PRO Gear Ratio?

I got this from Toyota:

 

Round two. Ding ding ding.

 

Yepppy...
Won't be as fun as round one was though!

 

Especially because that chart is correct...

 

Consider this an early Xmas present. Enjoy the read.

Unfortunately

 

Why muddy the waters with the truth??

 

That's only part of it! It's the same diff gears but it also has portal hubs with ctis that lowers the final drive ratio! I can't wait I'm so super stoked!!

 

You're showing a mix of 2WD, 4WD, AT, & MT there.

The TRD OR & Limited MPGs of 19/24 are for 2WD, V6 w/ AT - Same as 2016; The Pro is not available in this config.
The TRD Pro MPG of 17/20 is for 4WD, V6 w/ MT - All models with this drivetrain configuration are rated @ 17/20; All models with 4WD V6 w/ AT are rated @ 18/23 - Same as 2016

All MPG specs can be found here on page 29...

So what gear ratio is better for off road the AT or the MT? Sorry don't really understand the gear ratio thing yet

 

That would be worth an extra $10k extra price tag on a TRD Pro. I'm game!

 

I think the a/t should have 4:30 gears anyway. Engine is out of its power band with the 3:90's. If I go to 33's I would have to get 4:88 gears put in.

 

There you have it Black and white

 

He's got his mind made up, don't confuse him with the facts.

 

Then you arent at a level it will make a difference, just saying. Are you racing the baja 1000 or crawling mountains? They both have 4lo which is what really matters. Higher final drive ratio=higher theoretical top speed, less low torque. Mt>at all day and twice on sunday because of clutch, not gear ratio. Keep your low speed cruise control in the at, mt and 4lo can get you most anywhere you should bring a truck. That being said either truck is plenty capable and can do impressive stuff in the right hands or get stuck in a puddle in the wrong hands

 

Glad we got that settled.

 

Maybe TRD Pro is more realistic.

 

Food for thought......
If you want Mpg's get a Prius.....
