Also if you climb alot of hills or live in a hilly area then you might want to go with a higher gearset. I guess that falls under driving habits.

yea, i have the lower powered 4.0.. and i did fine with 35s... i just prefered the extra power so i did the 4.88s


if your in no hurry, stick with the 4.10s its not ultra fast...but its not hella slow

4.10's are not the best option for running 35's.......4.56's are great....i actually improved my fuel milage over stock with the 4.56's.....you will be sorry if you stick with the 4.10's.....
