More than likely it'll go down. Your engine will be running higher RPMs
more of the time. This will more than offset the work required to get up to
speed.

Subject: DML: Gas mileage and gear ratio
Here's a question... when I switch from 3.21's to 3.92's will my city gas
mileage go up? Seems to me the engine will have to work less to get the
truck up to speed. Any experience with this, anyone?
