Not crazy in the least. IMO, most older trucks are geared much too low for comfortable highway driving. I installed a T-5 in mine over 10 years ago, and I still think it is the single best improvement I could have done on it. My truck does get used as a truck, but doesn't have to carry a camper, so the T-5 has been trouble-free all this time.
