2nd gear for local roads where the speed limit is below 40 mph, also 4K-5K RPM.

Now that the car is in 100k mile territory I'm going to make an effort to get the lead out (with more frequent oil changes and FilterMag).
Below 3K RPM cruising is out. Too much low end making up the bulk of my miles I think leads to problems.
