Default RPM 6-SPEED

while in 6th gear at about 80mph the car rpm's are at 3500 it seems to be high than any standard i've driven before ? i love my tib but wish they brought down the rpm in sixth to at least 3000 for cruiseing at 80 is the gearing low so that it stays in the powerband? uzzled:

I belive you are correct. Due to the short gearing you engine is going to be working hard. That explains the horrible gas mileage IMO people get from the little 2.7 in the GK. Welcome to the boards.:smoking:
