what rpm do you manual drivers shift at
just test drove a v6 manual today (Woohhoooo). it was 2001 se v6, silver, charcoal interior, w/ sunroof. btw i noticed in the 2001 there is an option for 'mid' along with bass and treble on the stereo, whereas in my 2000, theres only bass and treble. anyways, i noticed that for decent acceleration, i was shifting around 3000 rpm, which struck me as a bit odd. in our 95 avalon, with the same engine, i feel the same amount of acceleration by letting it shift at 2200-2300 rpm, and its an automatic. any ideas why this is? also, when you guys are cruising 80 in 5th gear, what rpm is ur engine at? do manuals have cruise control? sorry bout all the questions, thanks in advance.
