Yup. With a 25.5" to 26" tire and a 700R4 (or 4L60E, 4L80E) 3.73 is perfect. It keeps the engine in the powerband at cruise speeds. Some folks out-trick themselves by choosing too high a gear (too low numerical) only to find that drivability and throttle response both suffer. Go with a 3.73 gear.
EDIT: And get the converter right, also. Call us for help.
