    I am in Muskegon Michigan but I run through Ohio quite a bit. The truck in question is not going on the road until after the Fourth of July. Just trying to put my ducks in a row on what to replace because this is my first truck I have owned and money is tight. Just want to make the right choice to make her driveable on the interstate

    Yes. I have refrigerated experience but I’m currently doing dry van and leasing a Ryder truck through the company I’m leased on to.

    With only 370hp and a 9 speed, I would lean closer to 3:70’s than 3:55’s

    So they will accept that truck that old, that's good.

    Yeah. It’s a very small company and the guy I’m leasing on with only has older equipment so there is not an issue with his policy or insurance

    If your trans has a .73 final drive and low pro 22.5’s you would be at 1550 rpm at 65mph

    I’m not so sure about the trans because when I looked under neath the truck this morning I did not see any transmission tag. But it does have 22.5 lo pro tires on it
