questions about HWY driving and different gears
Like the topic says. I want to ghange out the gears. I was just wondering about RPM's on the HWY. I drive the speed limit (normally) for yall that have put higher gears in, what RPM's are you at on the HWY say at 65mph? What gears do yall have and what RPM's are you at when cruising on the HWY? Hope that made some kind of sence??? 
TIA
EDIT: thinking of getting 4.77 if that helps any....

Some people said I was crazy for getting better gas mileage with the 4.44s, and even crazier for getting the best mpg from the 4.77s

I have been getting better mileage with my 4.77 set up than I was with stock gearing. I drive 50/50 highway and city
