110 isnt fast enough for me in north dakota. i forget the name of the road but i was cruising at about 130 for a good 45 min . i love the open flat roads out there. i just hope theres no snow when i drive

I hear you. Mine is only turning 2000 rpms at 70, but at 50-55ish, I feel that it is bogging down in too high a gear. At 60, I get 29-30 mpg.
