Look up Mike B (Mike Boteler) here in the forums (do a search) and then ask him about his gear swap in his Task Force Fire Truck. I forget off hand what he did, but whatever gearing he swapped into his rear axle lowered his ratio to where he runs 65 -70 MPH (I couldn't outrun him on the 700 mile trip to Huntsville and back, that's for sure -- I was in a '95 Cummins Dodge and just over 18,000 lbs gross).
