How bad will 4.56 gears kill my already horrible gas mileage in my RT. Also what would my gear ratios be with the stock 3.92 and 20 inch wheels with 275/45's on them. Thanks, Corey

It didn't appear to have affected my gas mileage much in my 4.7. I havn't kept track yet and found the difference. For some strange reason I get better mileage on the highway. I can make it past Spokane now, which I don't remember being able to do before. Driving there - 3K @ 85 mph.

its really only going to hurt it on the highway, try to stay at 60 or under. Do you have any mods to your 5.9?
