Default What Gears do you think I have?

Everything is pretty much stock and my door tag says I have 2.73s though I doubt thats the case. By the way its a 5 speed. At 60mph my rpms are about 2300. On my old 5.0 which was an automatic I could cruise at *70* and only be at 2000 rpms. Not sure what gears that had though. I would assume 2.73s since it didn't feel like it was that peppy.

If anyone knows their cruising speed and rpms that would be great!

Thanks!
