I know this is a shot in the dark, but I'm looking for some info that I would think be readily available. Car & Driver magazine usually posts a chart of gear speed, gear ratio, speed at 1000 rpm and max speed in each gear. I was able to find a review of our Chrysler Pacifica, but can not locate it for my '17 V6 Laramie 4x4 CC with a 3.55 rear gear. It doesn't need to be Car & Driver's info, but I would like that information. If anyone has a suggestion where to look, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Seeing this didn't generate any responses, I was able use my "long-ago" acquired math skills and generate a spreadsheet that works. Thanks to those who posted the gear ratios in other threads. Tire Rack supplied the necessary tire revolutions per mile. Thanks to those long ago math teachers who impressed upon me that someday you will need these skills. Interestingly, it appears that our Pacifica very seldom or NEVER achieves 9th gear. Perhaps that is reserved for +65 going slightly downhill with a tailwind when all the planets are aligned! :)
