So I am curious about the 2500 RPM. Is that the target for the highway and while in the city to get the most MPG?
The 2500 rpm number is just what seems to work best for me on the highway. Around town I drive very conservatively.... very light on the gas, short shifting, etc. I have found this car to be VERY sensitive to even the slightest changes in driving style. The good mpg numbers are there to be had; you just have to work for them.
