I shift around 2.8k in every gear and just cruise at 6th anywhere. If I want to pass someone I always just downshift and pass, then go back to 6th. In the city or hwy, unless you're out for a spirited drive. I don't really see a reason keeping it in any other gear and keeping the rpms at like 4k, you can just downshift anytime to pass someone and keeping the revs so high is very annoying (exhaust noise and gas waste). In my own opinion, of course
U actually drive in the city (assuming 45mph zone) in 6th?
