I drive most places between 1500 and 2500 rpms and my car never bogs as I think about the term. If I dip much under 1500 and I am in 4th gear or higher, then yes I would say the car bogs, but even at lower revs, the car moves just fine in the lower 3 gears.

Not disagreeing with you in any shape or form, just wanting to point out that this car does not have to revved higher than 3k to be drivable.
