What would lower gears due to gas mileage, which is what this thread is all about?
John
Higher numerically (lower) would increase it.

As Tom said, higher numerically ( changing from 3.73 to 4.10 for instance) would make it easier to pull a load. But, at the same vehicle speed the engine would run at a higher RPM. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that would mean lower mileage.

Apologies, my bad, the above is WRONG!!
Trying to do too many things at once.

I have a 360, 5 speed, 4X4 and a CTD, 6 speed, 4X4. The Diesel gets better mileage empty or pulling, and has lots more power. In fact, the Diesel gets better mileage pulling my race car and trailer than the gas truck gets empty.
