Since my commute covers Highway, City Street, and Freeway driving, I run the gamut of RPM. On the Freeway at 75 to 80, I cruise in 6th.

Whatever road I am on, whenever I am at "cruising speed", I try and keep the RPM's right about 3,000 or above.

However, getting to that "cruising speed", I frequently get into the 6,000+ rpm range. My wife, whom I love dearly but does not know much about cars, keeps telling me I am going to kill my engine by driving that hard. I keep telling her that is what the good Dr. (Porsche) ordered!
