Well if it makes a difference for the past 3 days I have been working in San Dimas, CA which is about a 35 mile highway drive both ways. I have a tachometer and I try to keep the RPMs between 2500-2900 and I am getting passed by people all day long. Truck was not built for the highway, but it does great at everything else. I keep it at 2500-2900 as I am scared to go past 3k for an extended period of time. What do you think a safe cruising RPM range would be? Thanks.
