Well, not here necessarily. My previous Audi was a 5ktq, and man alive
you didn't want to have that thing below 3200rpm. =) But with both the
5k and the A6 (both heavy cars, especially the A6 which runs right into
4,000 pounds), I have gotten 30mpg on the highway here (and highway
driving speeds around here are 75-90mph).

Best regards,
Brad
