Based on a 28" tall tire, 3.73 gears are a good all around gear. If you do more hyway driving, I go along with the other guys on that mid 3s gear. You will still have decent acceleration, but be able to cruise a little faster. as far as top speed, i have seen the 3.73s render the stock speedo totaly useless....crazyL
