Re: Acela Speed Question

Posted by Fisk Ave Jim on Tue Feb 15 12:17:40 2011, in response to Re: Acela Speed Question, posted by TransitChuckG on Tue Feb 15 12:08:02 2011. edf40wrjww2msgDetail:detailStr fiogf49gjkf0d A big factor in high speed gas mileage is the transmission. Say for example your your doing 55mph & your tach reads 3000 rpm, & your transmission has a 5th or 6th speed overdrive. Shift up to the higher gear and say do 75, your tach, depending on the vehicle in most cases will go down to say 2800-2900 rpm. With your engine turning less, in theory your milage should improve even at the higher speed.
