It could be market location difference, I know TX has many long box trucks, here in the midwest are a rarity compared to the short box.
I'd like the Mega Cab, but the 08 model comes standard with the 3.42 gears and the only option is the 3.73. No 4.10 at all.

I pull a gcw of 22600,my effective ratio is about 3:55,cruise at 1650/65mph.I do run a 40 hp tow setting on the edge.Unless your pulling a lot of twisty, steep mountain passes ,the 3:73 are more than adequate.
