Here you go. Also here's a link showing the gears of the 8HP70 used in teh Charger/Challenger. As far as I can find there's no difference in gearing between Dodge trucks and cars. The rear ratios on the Charger/Challenger range from 3.05-.09 it appears. So they are geared a bit more aggressively but also take a slight hit to MPG. The A8 makes them just barely avoid a GG tax.

Also note the Z51 is geared similar to the 6th gen SS.
