The OP never mentioned towing, so I have to chime in that a gasser with 3.73 gears is just fine for hauling a heavy camper like my AF 990. Truck + wet camper + gear + people and dogs scaled at 12,700 lbs and no problem with acceleration or climbing hills. I get between 9.75 and 10.75 MPG now and don't want to get even less with lower gearing.
The only thing I ever tow with my camper is a very light 2 man fishing boat. Weights about 300lbs plus the trailer.
