Rpm in 6th gear at 60mph

Hey all, just trying to figure out if 2500 rpm is where yours is at in 6th gear going 60mph. That seems damn high to me. I thought it should be an overdrive gear to save gas What do u think?

Because evo has close gear ratio, can't compare evo gear ratio to V8 gear ratio

2500 sounds about right for a IX, maybe a little lower.. You have a X and it's auto so

.. Try asking in the X forums..

If I could've turned 2500rpm's at 60mph in my Talon that would've been siqq. There are plenty of write ups on here about MR gearing just do a little searching.
