.....I also believe that the Ford SRW comes in the 3.42 and so far I have not seen many folks complaining about those truck....
Actually the new Ford SRW typically come with a 3.55 rear end. There are 3.31 and 3.73 options but standard is 3.55. But just looking at the axle ratio gives only part of the story. The Ford has a super "short" 1st and 2nd gear set which counteracts the effect on the "tall" rear end ratio and allows it to get off the line quickly.
