I don't know. Even with 3.92 gears, the V6 might not be strong enough to haul all the extra payload of the 33 gallon tank. 🤣😂😅😆

Thanks! That's true, people seek evidences that support their own beliefs. For 3.92 lovers here, I list the exact reason why 3.92 is better for towing, and for 3.21 lovers, I list exact reason why 3.21 is better for fuel economy. There's something for everyone. Personally, I am leaning 3.21 because I don't plan on owning a boat over 5000lbs, and all the 8000lb and above travel trailers require a 5th wheel found in HD trucks. To be honest, I would most likely be hauling air 99% of the time. If I ever own a boat over 10000lbs, I would probably have enough money laying around for a F350 Tremor. I'm sure many of you with horses or heavy construction equipment would benefit greatly from 3.92. I'm just an engineer chained to a desk.
Love it man! The tail end of the original article points directly to your affinity of the 3:21! I appreciate the original posting you were able to be unbiased in your write up keeping true with the facts and not over complicating anything! Thank you!
