I think 4.10s with 35" tires and the 4 speed auto trans is actually a good combination for highway driving. When climbing a grade the transmission will only drop one gear (out of O/D) which is perfectly normal for any vehicle. Of course any newer vehicle will have more gears for more close ratio shifts, but this is how it was back in 2008.
