It depends on what you need - if you want lots of speed no power on the bottom end you go with the high ratio - if you want lots of torque on take off and lots of pulling power you take the low gear ratio.

Do manual transmission cars get better gas mileage when driven at low speeds in a high gear or a low gear?
Not sure when you say low speed. Not knowing what your driveline ratio is I will just use some basic numbers .If 20 MPH is your speed and you were in first gear your engine RPM's would be 3000, if you were in second gear at 20MPH your engine RPM's would be 2500 , if you were in third gear at 20MPH your engine RPM's would be 2000. A difference of 1000 RPM's from low to high gear. Lower engine RPM's less fuel used.

How fast is a car going at 2000rpm?
That would depend on the gear ratio between the engine and the wheels, and in the diameter of the wheels. The transmission of the car lets you change the gear ratio, so in low gear the car may be going 15 MPH, while in high gear the car may be going at 70 MPH.
Why would low gear not work but high gear will on 13 double over?
A double over bicycle will have two gears for the chain and it allows for easier pedaling up and down hills. When you are in a low gear, you will find that having the chain on the smaller gear will work better than having it on the large gear, which should be reserved for the high gear.
Should you use a high gear or low gear when traction is poor?
In motor-driven vehicles it's often best to use a high gear, as it reduces the likelihood of the wheels spinning loose. For a bicycle it's often better to use a low gear, as it makes it easier for the rider to control the power.
What will happen if you take the rear end to a Chevrolet 1500 z71 and put the rear end to a Chevrolet 2500 in the place?
Nothing really. But remember that the front and rear ring and pinion MUST be the same gear ratio. You didn't say if the Z71 was a 4-wheel drive. If it is not then you will either kill the engine power are may even increase the power.That depends on the gear ratio in the 3/4 TON rear end and the 1/2 ton rear end. / DIFFERENCE Low gear verses high gear. Low gear= Power. High Gear = No power.
