Re: 2.3 MPG's
Regular cabs come with a 3.73. I'm not sure if you can even order the regular cab with the 4.10.

On my 310 mile round trip, I...

Re: Can’t turn traction control all the way off on 2011?
I don't have limited slip either and that's my point. The traction control system made both wheels pull like limited slip would. To me, that's a good thing.

Re: A towing Q...
Just remember, you can pull it with no problem. However, unless your trailer has brakes (most in that size range don't); stopping will be more difficult because of the weight of the tow vehicle.
