What RPM range do you drive???

[V-Rod]

Funny, I was just thinking of searching for a thread like this.

I drive most of the time in the 3k to 4k range with stints of 5k-6k when getting on a freeway or passing a few slo-pokes.

I like 3rd gear at 4k when in town or city roads as it is so silky smooth and power is instantly on tap.

I always feel as if the rest of the world is in slow motion when I drive my Boxster.

The car was made to run near red line in high gear on the Autobahn for hours at a time.

This is probably true, though having just driven the entire length of Germany on the autobahn after picking up my Boxster, I can tell you that the myriad of construction zones prevent anything like "hours at a time" high speed driving. That being said, as soon as I got out of those zones and back into the no speed limit stretches, it sure was a hoot winding it up through the gears at which point things got blurry!

2000 to redline. I tend to use the whole rev range but maybe that is because I am a "euro"
