tried to really pay attention today, at 55mph in 4th I'm at about 2600-2700.

I tried today, and at 55 in 4th I'm right about 2500. 60 mph was about 2650.
Of course, speedos and tachos do vary.  On the way home it was more like
52 mph at 2500 rpm, go figure.

In the Frankenheap (200D 115) I'm running around town in 4th all the time.
In the 190D, make that third.  More or less the same ground speed.  In
fact, the 200D lugs down to about 25 mph in fourth before you _have_ to
shift, of course you should have long before that.
