If I could afford a vehicle I would buy one. my other car is a civic I don't think regearing to higher gears is an option since it already struggles a bit maintaining highway speed, likes to downshift on all but the slightest hills.

so at what RPM does "low end" end and "high end" begin? If my "around town" and my highway RPM's both fall into the low end range then my question is answered. Is high end only of concern for folks running the RPM's up way high in racing or what not?
