You will definitely notice the difference between 3.21 and 3.55. Between
3.21 and 3.92 is like night and day.

Subject: DML: gear ratios & acceleration

This may be a dumb question because the answer is probably
common sense, but - has anyone ever done a head-to-head
comparison of two dakotas, identical except for the two trucks
having different gear ratios? I am just curious as to how
much of a disadvantage I have with the 3.21 gears. I'd like
to know what kind of difference 3.55 gears or better would
do for my off-the-line potency.

thanks,
Kevin D.
