2013 Sierra HD, is a gear change worth it?
Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and have a question about my 2013 Sierra 2500 HD with a 6.0L and 3.73 gear ratio. It has a tow rating of 9400 lbs and in the manual it says if I had 4.10 it goes...

You would have been far better off to locate a 2013 truck with 4.10 gears. I never buy a truck or SUV for towing without a 4.10 rear end even if it makes the search take longer and negotiations with the dealer trickier.
Where the 4.10 helps is with acceleration and when going up a steep grade. The engine will be in its peak power band at towing speeds and provide more power.
Options are to change gears, change truck, change trailer, or live with it as it is. Hopefully you will do your research next time before you buy a new tow vehicle instead of after the fact.
