I have tried both and I prefer the 3.73's with a 26" tire. This is the point, the topic is dead. It's like trying to explain that apples taste better than oranges (or vise versa) when the person asking the question has only tasted grapes.

Which will have the better gas mileage, 3.27s or 2.73?

And I believe you 100% on that. However, you have to understand that just because you like to pork 400lb.+ chicks doesn't mean I'm gonna go home and start feeding my wife all the carbs she can eat............

Depends on tranny. If it's a T-3650 or termi T-56, 3.27s would probably be better because the top gear is really tall. If it's a T-45, then probably 2.73s cause they don't have as tall of a top gear. Not 100% sure this is right though, just a guess.
