Anybody running 276 gears?
I run 2.76's in everything I drive. My 71 Polara in my avatar, my surviver 67 Dart 270 and soon in my 69 Coronet R/T. I'm an old guy, I drive mostly on rural roads and interstates. To many people say highway driving. Highway and Interstate driving are two completely different things. To me, highway driving is 65 and Interstate here in Nebraska is 75-85. I don't much like being passed by econoboxes on the freeway. 3.23 gears on the interstate suck! I don't care if I can burn the tires or not. I'm not going to butcher any of my cars for an overdrive. 2.76 gears and as tall of tire that will fit. You guys that drive around in the city can run you 3.91's. Years ago, a friend had a nice Cuda, 440, 4 speed and 4.30 gears. He was always blowing-my Cuda this, my Cuda that. One extended weekend I drove my 69 R/T down to lower Missouri and Route 66. Total miles was around 1800 that weekend. When I came back, my buddy stated blowing about his Cuda again. I told him-I just got back from an 1800 mile drive and you drive your Cuda and run a tank of racing gas thru it in a couple hours. I asked-who do you think had more fun. I did! He never blew about his 4.30 geared Cuda again!
