I just drove Nelli across this big-ass country,
and going over 100km/h doesn't feel right to her. 95 is good. 100 is @ 3000
Now she is manual,ey, and I noticed the rpms don't drop as much going from 4th to 5th as they do with all the other steps
Isn't it strange that they wouldn't make that 5th gear really low, cause you obviously don't need the power to accelerate any more, you just wanna cruise and get good milage.
Know what I mean?
Is there a technical thing to it?
love and light
