I have 4.44 gears in my Ram 5500 and expect to be about 23K lbs GCW when we tour CO this summer. I could have selected the 4.10's, but the plan is go bigger and heavier in the future. I think you will be happier the 4.10 gears for the amount of weight you will be towing if you do any elevations. The 3.73's will do fine on flats, but IMHO will be taxed on big grades or headwinds.
I feel the air system they are using is still too new without an established history to put on a truck you plan to keep for a long time. If you are one of those that trades in about the time the warranty expires, I would not have that hesitation.
