Any idea about the gear ratio? Jonmalibuss?

There was a post about the V-max here before it became available and from what I remember there was a 2wd and a 4wd option and if I remember right there was also gear ratio options one being 3.73's and the other being the 4.10's. My guess is if it was not a special order and it's 2wd it will have 3.73's

He might have gotten beaten by a black blazer xtreme with a turbo.. oh wait hes in florida.. hehe.. I just ran a guy last week with an srt-10 with my blazer with 10 lbs of boost and a little meth and that SRT 10 couldnt catch me anywhere off the line or from a 60 mph roll and he still had a licence applied for and the dealer flag on the antenna.. I think he was feeling ripped off
