Default Re: Things I should Know-long trip planned

It's been stated here on few other post BUT I can relay our experience.....Were it me, I would "X" off your list the 3:25 gear set. We swapped our 32 rear gear from 4:11 to 3:54's WHICH for here in Florida was a tremendous improvement BUT when we took our car out to California in 2004, it was quite the effort to pull the "true" mountain's around Laguna Seca and Monterey peninsula. ALSO the hills around Palos Verdes in LA were 1st and "maybe" second gear pulls as well....SO I would NOT go any higher than 3:54. IMO 3:73 to 75 would be perfect BUT where you gonna find those.
