Default 4.10's

So I have a automatic thinking about getting 4.10's. So how bad will this f*** up my gas milage because I drive highway? And is there anybolt on's I could get to try and aleviate it if it's too bad? Or would 3.90's or 3.73's be the better way to go.

just do it and forget about it. then when you go to the 1/4 mile track you can say i went 13.4 13.3. i would of got em but i had future plans of getting boosted.

everybody drives on the highway. i have a 30 mile a day roundtrip to work and home. i fill up once a week. it wont affect mpg all that much. i went through the same thing you are going through just get the 410's and call it a day.

i put gas in my car when it hits the low fuel light and my miles will read somewhere between 240-260 depending on my driving habits. since you do a lot of highway driving you should do a little bit better then my car with 410 gears.

Just get the 4.10s and be done with it. My mileage went up actually, because I can keep it in 5th gear now.
