Subject: axle ratio + transmission model


North Dakota
Please tell me I didn't totally screw up. Posted on the 6th about a semi I've been looking at. Salesman came down to my price and it specked out right(maybe). Wrote the check today and will pick up next week.

Rear end turned out to be 3.73. Transmission model TDA Mo-15G10A-M15. So 10 speed with overdrive with a 11.19 first gear ratio. Reading earlier posts in hindsight and I actually went in the bathroom and threw up. So is this truck going to pull out of a soft field or yard at 80,000lbs? Have a few rolling hills that most would consider flat as a tabletop. So a N14 @460 should be okay?

Total newbie, first semi purchase. Talked to many people, but this never came up. Hopefully my next purchase won't be a new clutch! Think I'll sign off and go throw up again.
