It won't affect your gas mileage by more than 1-2 mpg in my experience. I have driven over 1000 miles in a weekend with my 4.10s and it's not bad at all. You need to drive or at least ride in a mod motored car with gears. It's not like back in the day when everyone ran a 3-speed auto or a 4-speed manual and if you geared your car aggressively it was almost topped out in the 1/4 mile.
agreed
and before it get said no it does wear on the car more
cause even though your at a higher rpm the motor is under less load
