I was on the dodge site a little while ago the 3:73 are standard and the 4:10 is a option for a extra 50.00 dollars Something else I saw not to steal your thread but I am pricing out a 06 megacab shortbed 3500 there is a option for duel rear wheels in the ST model they are $535 in the SLT they are $1235 and in the larime they are $535 I called them about it and they said it must be the SLT option I told them then why would it be in a lower model ST for 535 and a higher option Larime for 535 (THEY HAD NO IDEA AND TOLD ME TO CONTACT A DEALER) so it seems that no one contact (dealer or dodge) can give you all the right information.

just like they said your dealer is full of bull nanny....

my 06 2500 CTD 4x4 SWB came standard with auto tranny and 3.73 rear end. Mine has the Thunder Road package which adds tow hooks, alloy wheels, tow package, etc...

Congrats on your truck......do they put the Bighorn emblem on your truck...cuz the Thunder Road is not put on the trucks or at least ones here in Charleston. LOL

They was just trying to sell you what they had as most people don't even know what gear ratio is. A good friend of mine bought one and did they tell him what gear ratio he would like ( NO ) he got 4:10's and hates the HWY!
Diesel pump likes him Thought!
