    I run 107-110,000 every trip (haulin gasoline, diesel, jet fuel etc...) with 565isx 18spd 3.90's on big rubber. Pretty sweet combo. I'd say atleast 475hp and a 13spd w/ 4.10's at the minimum.

    That's what I was thinking, 3:90 or 4:10's with 500+ hp and an 18 speed. And how about that front axle, I would want the heavy duty 20,000 pounder up there.
