ksk, he's got manual petrol, it's 3.21. the 3.73 sounds as a good compromise, but it's manual petrol.
i'm gonna re-gear my crd with 4.1 as soon as i get it. with 32"s as now standard, it's gonna rev at ~ 2500 rpm in 6th at 110 km/h that's ok for turbodiesel. they like to be revved.
rusey, if towing is important for you, just re-gear it. the 6 speed tranny built by mercedes was chosen and matched to 4.1 for the king of rock crawling - the rubicon, but it's not fuel efficient! so for on-road use they decided to gear jks with 3.21 and 6th gear became basically useless. auto has less gear range, so they went with 3.73 having realized later 4.1 auto wasn't fuel efficient either.
