This topic came up on the other BBS and I read lots of interesting opinions. I'm wondering what are the thoughts of the folks on this BBS. It seems to me I have been shifting too early and cruising in too high a gear. I was cruising at about 2400, maybe I shoulda been down a gear and running a higher RPM. Also, on a stock 2.0 at about what mph on the freeway do you take 5th gear? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
