They just need a scab with the 5.5" box. Then there wouldn't be any need for a return of the Ranger and it would fit in that market of people who don't quite want a full size truck.

The 4.10's are going to be ridiculous (in a good way) with this truck. I have 3.73's on my Eco screw with 6.5' bed and had 1/2" less tire tread on my rears by ,y first oil change.

I am wondering why they chose 4.10s. Forced induction typically likes the higher ratio rear gear to keep in the torque band longer.

I bet it will fry 2nd with a tune.

I think the name "Tremor" is really lame and hokey. Otherwise, the truck looks great, and 4:10's from the factory is gonna make that RCSB a hoot to drive.

I don't doubt you at all, but there are Ls in the 11's still using the Eaton. The power is probably the same / similar but the Ls only weigh like 4,700lbs.

I think this new RCSB could be every bit the legend the Lightning has become, but it will take that fueling solution. The best part, IMO, is similar weight and power to a Lightning but with 4WD.

We dynod the same exact night,back to back, and I made more power. I'm sure there are Eaton power Ls making a boat load more power and going faster,but with upper and lower, gears, nitrous/meth, ported blowers, etc.
Extra trans gears, final gear ratios, my launching in 4hi and locked, etc all play a role

Why won't this tremor be able to tow? Why do you think hd's and Ls were so popular over the Chevy ss and srt10? Flat **** and get and still haul the boat to the lake

What do you guys think, its got to be 1000-1500 lbs lighter than out SCREW trucks? Input on weight difference between the two(reg. cab vs SCREW)?
I like the 4.10's. Give me a 4x4, leveled with 275/65/20's....and the 4.10 will work out juuuuuust fine.
