What gear do you find yourself cruising the most?
 
Hey guys,
What gear do you find yourself cruising the most on your daily driving? I find myself cruising in 4th gear for 75% of my commute to and from work.

6th gear with MT. You can easily use 6th gear for both local and highway. Cruising at 4th gear is just wasting your gas.........unless you're crawling around 20 mph.

When I'm stuck in rush hour, I probably use neutral more than any other gear. That's why I never will understand why people claim they can't have a stick because of heavy traffic. What's the big deal? When it's bumper to bumper I just let the clutch out enough to get it rolling and go right back into neutral. I never even use the accelerator most of the time. When I drive my automatic winter beater in traffic it is so boring I want to tear my hair out.

I cruise using the tallest gear available in a given vehicle given a "normal or average range" of driving conditions.

Yeah my commute is in the 30mph-35mph zones.

6th, but would gladly stay in 5th if i could get better gas mileage(love stepping on the gas in 5th). My daily commute is mostly highway. :driving:
