Hi guys

Just got my truck and haven't had anytime to even drive or play around with it

Wondering what rpm you are running on the highway with your trucks, I want to compare to see if my tach is reading correct.

RPO codes show 3.73's and I have 265/75/16's @75% on it. At 100 kph i am pretty sure it was around 1700 rpm. ( Will go for a longer ride tomorrow). Tach does show 500 rpm when stopped at the light, and smoothly moves with no erractic behaviour ( wish I could say the same for the fuel gauge, ugh)

I will be checking the ratio once I get the truck in the air, and will also plug it in and scan to make sure.

Thanks,

Mike
