It's a regular cab.

Mine has the 3.73 gearing, too.

Regarding the tires, I will have to put new ones on in probably another 10K or so. I haven't looked at the tire calculator yet, but I will. I'm curious what difference that could make.

I will plan on buying a Scan Gauge soon. It looks like the Scan Gauge E might be what I'll need.

My truck has 192K miles on it and the engine has been making an undiagnosed noise. I'm hoping I'll get another 50K out of it before I have to replace it with a remanufactured one. For now, I'm trying to make some common sense mods to save money.

Thanks for your input.
