What are your average Revs?

[waynne]

Assuming you look at your rev counter where would you say it spends most of its time when you are driving?

My rev needle hovers around 2000 - 3000 weekdays and 3000-4000 at weekends - what about yours then?

[pgarner]

usually around 3-3500rpm the whole time joys of living out in the country

[Prince]

Somewhere between 3-6000 depending. I generally shift at 5000 (don't forget I drive a Honda...it needs revving ).

[HDi fun]

Can't say what average is as I don't have a data logger.

Generally change up at 2.5 to 3 and down at around 1.8 - 2.

Consider that 70mph is 2100rpm in fifth you clearly have to be sensible about this.

So I drive at 97 mph which is just under 3000 in fifth

[waynne]

97 is sensible then I hope that is off road - for example drive on the pavements! (J O K I N G ! Driving on the pavements is dangerous - there are so many holes and cracks you might damage your car!)

[HDi fun]

So was I - I know that sarcasm is a very low form of humour. So I use it as a substitute

[waynne]

On the contrary "Sarcasm is a very high form of wit!"

I tend to drive between at between 1500-2000 rpm, my car has an autobox, but if your over 2k and back off the loud pedal it changes up. i do tend to drive at higher revs when i get my wages though

2000rpm will do 60ish without the engine labouring so is fine for getting to work and back
