Yes, I have, but I'm not sure how I would compare the two. Remember that in RodKnock's neck of the woods he can not cruise much at speeds above the high 60s. Here in my state we're now moving our posted limits up to 70. Which means casual, light highway cruising is now 80+.
Here, this post
Transmission Choice has the 24k gold analysis on .64 versus .82 -- and I can't remember anybody posting that they wanted to move numerically down from a 3.54 to a 3.31 or thereabouts. You might want to post a thread soliciting replies to that very issue. But I will tell you that it is an absolute joy to cruise along in the 70s or 80s with your big FE making
less noise than the wind.
