I am in the same situation. I have the 3.73's, and when I lifted the truck on 37's, my mileage dropped a few mpg. One of the next things I do is upgrade to 4.10's. Some say go with the 4.56's, but that is only good if you tow a lot. I drive a lot on the highway, and I am getting 16mpg now. It should go up when I get the 4.10's. If you are not planning on lifting the truck with big tires, or towing a lot, I would get the 3.73's.
