    A little gas at highway speeds, 3500 rpm and 3rd gen has plenty of power with more in reserve. Not the best off the line, but fine if you are not afraid to work the engine.

    I have more then that in my 2013 and 2018, and my experience is opposite of yours. I always felt the 23X horsepower on the freeway. Any wind gust or slight incline meant a significant change in throttle input.
