I had a Chevy 2500HD with the 3.73 gear, and wasnt thrilled with it, towing about a 9K 30 foot toyhauler. It got us there, but downshifted at the sight of any incline, and sucked gas at 8 mpg and was always revving to the moon. Traded in for a 3/4 ton diesel after about 6 months of towing. Around town the gasser was okay, averaged about 14 mpg, but the diesel got about 19-20. The 4.10 rear in the gasser was better (neighbor had one) but he wasnt happy either as he camps in the mountains a lot and switched to a 2010 GM diesel, he has 33 foot bunkhouse TT at about 8K. Wish Toyota would diesel up, Nissan is between 11K and 13K for their XD truck now.
