i had 3.73's for about 5 months with 35" km2's. it wasnt that bad. here the speed limit is 55 and i cruised around 65 no problem. the passing on the freeway sucked... and the constant gear shifting on the hills and climbs was not fun, but it was not unbearable. just turn OD off. you will possibly loose a little bit of mpg's but who cares. its a jeep.
