What is your regular and sport driving RPM for shifting?

Hey Guys I am just getting used to my 2001 base and have only driven it about 6 times. I have noticed I can really ride second pretty deep into the RPMs and she doesnt seem to mind....and of course third gear seems to go all the way to the moon. Can you guys give me an idea of what a healthy RPM to shift into 3rd and into 4th would be please. I have heard these cars like to be driven a little hard so I have just been diggin in a bit. I have also heard these cars dont like to be lugged around but sometimes in a neighborhood it is unavoidable.....do u guys prefer to ride second gear in slower areas or do u bump it up to third and let her creap at low rpm???

Thanks
