Subject: whats your RPM?
IP: Logged

Message:
Hi, this is going to be a survey. What is your RPM at highway speed (100 KPH, or 60 MPH)? I am interested in finding out what the average is, with relationship to rear end gears and mileage. If you dont know your gears, check your glove box. Truck year isnt important.

Engine: 3.9l
Speed: 100KPH
RPM: 2000
Diff Gear: 3.21
MPG: 27


If I get enough resonses, I will post the results in graphical form.

thanx for your input

just my opinion but, wouldn't you want tire size and tranny type also? as that would affect rpm too. i'll post as soon as i get the info.

4.7 4X4 QC 3.55's 5-45RFE stock 245 70 (or whatever they are) tires. 1500 RPM's at 60

Now you know why I will be swapping in 4.10's when I go bigger tires. That .067 final on the 5th gear is TALL.

MPG is about 18 to 19 Highway. 13 to 14 city. usually less because I drive it like I stole it!
