Well here's my experiences... HAD a truck with an ism 385 c over drive 10spd and 3.05 gears would 80mph in 9th! It was a real pain to get going in the field. I now have a truck with 475isx and a c overdrive 10spd with 4.11 gears. You can let the truck idle and even if ground is soft take off easily in 1st. If I were running a lot of hwy I'm not sure i'd want slow gears like them. I don't travel any roads that are over 60mph so for me it works great! Running 60mph is right at1450rpm.
