I can vouch for that. There is a massive hill I have to climb and there is a stop sign at the bottom. When I accelerate I am in 3rd by the time I get to the top. With each shift the vacuum dips low then starts to climb again. Once I reach the speed limit of 25mph the vacuum gets to about 9". If I creep along at lower speeds the vacuum is lower or the RPMs are too high.
