"What's the sense of gearing these cars
primarily for highway cruising?"
Well....
'Cause I didn't get a BE so I could leave
it home in nice weather when I commuted
down to NYC airports to fly the friendly
skies in bascially 70mph limited access highway driving circumstances
where having a 5 speed enables me to tune
for low and mid-range instead of top
end, as one might have to do with a
4 speed and 3.9. :):)
All depends upon the driving circumstance, state of tune, spec., etc.
Considering my engine spec in terms
of torquey low and mid-range along with
the kind of driving I do in the area in
which I do it, I'll
be replacing the diff with a 3.55 if the
3.7 ever bites the dust.
Personal driving style and preference all
play a "personal" part in this too...as it
should be! :):)
