Rear end ratios
I've read where some truck campers specify the ratio of gearing in the differential of their trucks used for truck camping. Would anyone out there be so kind so as to explain to me what the advantages...

Sticking my neck out a bit as I'm going from memory, but a 3.55 geared vehicle will have less pulling power than a 4.10. But good luck finding, let's say a new one ton vehicle, with more than 3.73 gearing. The reason is the newer vehicles compensate with up to 10-speed transmissions. Back in the day, a 4-speed tranny might have 4.10 gearing in a one ton. Bottom line is any of the newer one tons can handle most, if not all, truck campers sold today, especially if DRW.
