    Screw mpg's we all gave that up years ago.. Do you see the loss more city or highway, or because you just cant keep your foot off that skinny?

    I’m pretty giddy about it, the cruise from Mark’s yesterday just reaffirms it to me.

    all the way around. taking off is where it sucks fuel the most. cautious driving can get me about 16mpg, normal driving around 15.2 and aggressive driving around 14.3.

    Auto shift point is about 3k rpm with normal driving. this equates to
    1st to 2nd at 15mph
    2nd to 3rd at 25 mph
    3rd to 4th at 40 mph
    4th to 5th at 55 mph
    5th to 60th at 65 mph
    in 6th at 3k rpm your doing about 85. I've run it at 95 mph but my tires are rated for 90 so I didn't push it further. Think I could have made 100 easy though.

    Trans still shifts funny, just not right at the speeds you normally drive anymore. 5th and 6th are much closer geared than 5 and 4th so the wierd downshifting is at a lower overall speed than typical hwy driving.
