3.73 the choice

hey fellas (and ladies if any) i'm new to the gear game and was wondering if i didnt plan on going larger than 33 in tires in the future, should i drop my 3.55 to 3.73 or go to 4.10. i've modded out my truck with intk exhst chp fan pully and so on, was wondering what if any the price difference between 3.73 and 4.10 stuff like that. she is a 4x4 so i know im gonna have to double up the cash flow. fuel wise am i lookin at losing a 1 mpg?

4.10s ! A .25 or so change is a waste of time and money for a nominal change. 4.10s and 33"ers wont even totally put your 70mph rpms back to many stock F-150s. Your mileage should be similar to factory. Yes, expensive on the 4X4s.
