    Got a bit confused, can someone tell me what rpm should I get at 70 mph. How about 75 mph?

    This happens only with a easy load? The article says that under a heavy load it stays in 11 gear.
    I have now a 2013 D13 Ishift XE and this one is going in 12 fully loaded.

    If you want to stay at 8mp/g keep it in lover geer 55mph or so. At 73-80 will burn more fuel but will get you too on time appointment
