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...

To me it is dealer availability.
If you live in Nevada (7th largest state) you have 3 locations with GM dealers. Reno area. Or 300 miles east in Elko. Or 450 miles southeast in Las Vegas.
This was a GM corporate decision some years ago. The small town dealerships weren't doing enough volume for GM so they shut them down. I used to have a Chevy and a GMC dealer nearby in Winnemucca. GM shut both of them down. Fallon had a Chevy and GM dealer. GM shut both of them down.
So why would anyone in rural Nevada buy a GM product? Why should I drive 170 miles to the nearest GM dealer when there is a Ford/Dodge dealership in every little town?
Buying new yes..When I bought a new truck in 2008 in Boise Idaho,I didn't really think about a dealer near home,I should have!The only dealer here is GM and it's 80 miles to the nearest other dealer of any kind..So servicing my new Ford included groceries and fast food we don't have here either..
