Nice truck, I have the 2015 version. I know Cummins 12v98 isn't a fan of the 3:73s but I have no problem with them. Wait to get on some of the longer grades, you're REALLY going to appreciate that Cummins AND the awesome engine brake!
You'll probably find yourself smiling every time you get in it to drive, I do. LOVE my truck :B

I am sure the 3.73's will work fine, I am going with my experience with 3.42's and 4.10's.
As far as love the truck, he!! yea! Just Double/Triple towed from SoCal to AZ and back and hit the scales with a combined 35,340#!!! Honestly it towed no different! Just had to think about where you are going as to not get in a spot where you have to back up.
Coming West on 10 toward Palm springs there is a long 6 percent or so grade, I just locked it in 4th with cruise at 60 and came down with zero brake hits.
My 3500 with the Aisin and 3.73 rear end does very well with about 15k lbs behind it. If I had a lot more weight then the 4.10 would be my choice.
