Transmission + motor question

I think it depends on what you mean by "pulling." You can accelerate in 6th, just not that hard. I usually cruise in 6th between 85-90. If I leave it

I think it depends on what you mean by "pulling." You can accelerate in 6th, just not that hard. I usually cruise in 6th between 85-90. If I leave it in 6th and step on the gas, it'll accelerate pretty decently. Mind you, if I really wanted it to get up and go I'd drop it into 5th. The gearbox is non-sequential. It's a conventional MT (vs. DSG, for example).
