[QUOTE="Chazzersgarage, post: 1891246, member: 45363"] A couple of my own observations on this. I have a 23 37PP and I'm coming from a 18 Gen 2. For gas mileage I seem to be losing about .5 to .8 MPG. I got between 16.8 to 17 in my gen 2. I get 16.2 to 16.5 in my gen 3. The difference between my truck and yours could be anything from driving style to tire pressure. At 70 mph I do get more downshifting however, at 80 I get less. I feel like the 37PP rides as well and has no more wandering than my gen 2 did at highway speeds. It's very stable at speed. On fast fire roads (60 to 80 mph) it actually seems a little better than my gen 2 was. My guess is the upgraded shocks have a lot to do with that. The 37's seem smoother and more planted. Both trucks are effectively the same except for the front suspension. I believe the front suspension contributes more with the 37 tire package than most people realize. Another thing I have noticed is the transmission performance. My gen 3 transmission seems to shift smoother and a little more positively than my gen 2 transmission did. Once again this could simply be my perception. I have read some things that lead me to believe the 37PP transmissions have the same upgraded clutches and shift controls as the raptor r. There seems to be an ongoing "love/hate" kind of thing with Raptor Owners and 37's. Most seem to think the factory did alright with the 37PP raptors. I think the suspension upgrades help with the issues but it's not the only or ideal solution. I'm interest in what the long term results of running 37's are with the 35 trucks. [/QUOTE]
