Did you mean to say that?
Given my Focus sits just under 3000 rpm in 4th at 80kmh, it is constantly going
way over 3000 rpm under acceleration.
If you constantly change gears below 3000rpm in these cars, then they are real slugs.
IMHO anyone who is changing gears like that doesn't know how to drive these cars
