Rear end gearing
Hey guys, truck newbie here! Wondering about what the difference is in the gearing you order for the rear end of the truck? Going with the new 2.7 liter Ecoboost if that helps any. Thanks guys!

You really need to decide what you will be using the truck for. If you will be towing a lot, or running loaded you may want to go with the taller gear, 3.73 or whatever it is. Also if you will be putting on larger tires you may want the taller gear. If you will be using it mostly as a commuter car and empty most of the time the 3.31 will give best mileage. The 3.55 is a compromise between the two. Your call, you need to decide what use the truck will see, and what you are expecting out of it.
