Would prefer 3.73 but I keep 6th gear locked out most of the time unless on flat roads.
Can't answer on Ford. Never owned one.

I saw that combo of higher HP and torque with the Aisin. Not sure if I want it bad enough to spend $3K on it. I was thinking 6th would have to be locked occasionally. I do that with the Ford too....3.55 gears.
I am just surprised at the higher Ram payloads. I had the Cougar XLite when I bought the Ford. Payload wasn't an issue.
Are you OK with the ride when unloaded?
Sounds like I need to visit a dealer.
