Could use some input.

I've hit a mental wall with my 74. I'm spending my tax return this year on a tranny for her, and I'm not sure which way I want to go.

My original plan was to go with an NV3500 5 speed, as my truck is a cruiser, not a bruiser and I don't tow with it. But lately, I've been missing driving a 3 on the tree, and am now considering going that route.

I think, overall the three on the tree would be the cheaper swap, but I'm also remembering that my 74 is my dd, and a 5 speed would be more economical in the long run.

Input would be appreciated.

Thanks.
