You are telling us the lower gears give more pulling power while at the same time defending the 3.42's for towing and wondering why everyone is concerned about speed?
I'm not following your question. We are talking about trucks with a curb weight of 7000+ plus. I don't understand why there are some people on here that think these are racing vehicles, not vehicles designed to haul weight. Ram put 3.42's in the 6.7 for 2500's and as standard for 3500's. I have yet to hear from anyone that couldn't move weight with the 3.42 axle.
If you want to race, you can do much better with $50K than buy a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. This is RV.net, not roadracer.net...
