5.13's with 35's and a 6sp? Crawling would be good, but your HWY RPM would be extremely high (2800-3000 at 70mph depending on the true size of the tire). With an auto it would be livable. But with a 6sp, he si going to want 4.56's if he does a fair amount of HWY (2600rpm at 70), and maybe 4.88's if he lives in the hills.

Yea it's pretty mountainous where I live. I've had a very hard time finding places that will actually "test" My mods that are sitting in my garage waiting to be put on So I'll more than likely have to drive 90-140 miles one way to places where it will actually be like this. "Okay you can go do that trail and make it or you can do this trail and break everything and flip."
Which will be cool to have choices of difficulty
It seems here locally there are a lot of red necks who just lift trucks with crap lifts and huge tires and go "muddin" Which isn't anything wrong with that; however, it's just not my thing.

Except for 6th gear being useless under about 65 mph, I am pleasantly surprised with the performance of the 6 spd, 4.10 gears and 35 inch KM2s. Much better than I thought it would be. The Superchips tuner helps too. Even mountain driving above 7 and 8k feet is still good.
