Exclamation More Ring and Pinions

I have a 2004 FX4 with 35" tires now and planning on 37/38" in the near future but want to regear now. My question is this, what kind on MPG/RPM@70 are people out there getting with 4.56 and 4.88 gears and is there anyone out there with 35" and 4.88's????

I have 35's and 3.73s right now. Changing them out next weekend though for 4.56 or 4.88s
