    Do you like to go 80+ on the freeway? 4.56

    75 and under? 4.88

    You're on 35s right?

    It sounds like the company needs to buy an F150 with a GEM TOP for you. WTF, man?

    Don't consider me an expert (on anything really) but I say 4.88s. The overdrive gearing and 35s should work well together

    LOVE mine, but I'm a 6 speed. 70-75 top cruising speed, or else mpg plummets like a rock. Everything slower than that makes me go giggitty. Every time I drive :D

    This is what I've read with the V8. My 285/75/17's are about the same weight as your 315's and will be going with 4.56 eventually. Around town it's fine, I just want some extra umph on hills and eventually for when I tow.

    Hey everyone. I haven't been in the Toyota game for a few years now but am looking to get back into it. I'm deciding between a 4runner and a Tacoma still. Are there any specific dealers in the area that you guys recommend working with? I live over in Citrus Heights.
