ive had trucks with 203 205 and 208, i do enjoy the lower gearing in the 208 but ive blown up too many to bother with them anymore, the chain is a major weak link.. i agree the gearing in the 205 is not as ideal,as you said i would love to do a doubler one day. But for now it will serve my purposes. typically i do my offroading in 4hi anyway.. and first gear and 4Lo on a 205 with a juiced up 6.0 is still mighty potent.
