Gears
I'm thinking about getting some 3:73 or 4:10's. Am not sure what's the best ones or the difference between the two.

Is it a DD? Go with the 373's if it is.

Definitely 3.73s if it's a daily driver

Auto or stick? Auto matches well with 4.10 and the stick with 3.73 for daily cruising, you can even get away with 3.55s. either way you will get a nice off the line punch w/o killing the fuel mileage.

Had 3.55s on my '07 GT... 3.31s on my '08 GT500- switch to 3.73s... and back to 3.55s on my '12 GT500. I liked the 3.73s the best...
