My friend had an 2004 V6 and put 3.73's with a Tlok in and liked it. But later he wished that he went with the 4.10's.

if you drive on the freeway i would go with 3.73's but if its an automatic and u stay off the freeway id go with 4.10's.

i think hwy or city, 3.73's or 4.10's would be fine. I had 4.30's in my 05GT and would drive over 350 miles to my parents house on the hwy and it wasn't bad at all. Had 4.10's in my 95GT and did tons of hwy driving and it wasn't bad. About to put 4.10's in my Cobra and it'll do some hwy driving here and there.

yup yup...Ive got 3.73 gears and at 70mph im already hitting 2300rpms...80mph im already at 2500 (b4 i was doing 70mph@1900rpms)
4.10's would probaly be like 70mph@2500rpms
and i get the same mpg on the freeway but in the city i get better mpg
