Default What RPMs does everyone shift at?

I was just wondering at how many RPMs everyone shift at for normal driving conditions....

2.5 RPMs for me... 4.5 RPMs when i get on the freeway.

It all depends... When I feel agressive or need to drive real fast, this is the whole 7000-7500. When I feel relaxed and just cruising this could be even 1500-2000....

I rarely shift above 3500... I just cant waste gas right now... it needs to go back down a little more and I will redline it through every gear! I need bio-gas not diesel!
