It's torque at the wheels that matters, and you can increase that with gear reduction. More reduction means that at the same forward speed the engine will be spinning faster, producing more power and therefore more torque at the wheels.

 

And if that was not true I would be out of work, been working with designing gearboxes for 25 years. 

32 on stock gearing, make it pretty useless for any offroading based on my own experience. Water or desert..
