Fifth gear is cut into the shaft. The cost vs. benefit of making a replacement just isn't good. You want better highway mileage, DRIVE SLOWER.

I'm on your side man! We should add a 6th gear too (says the auto driver).

drive slower? I just think its retarded at 65mph to be around 3,100 rpms. I mean its good on gas but i think a 6 speed or a taller 5th gear would have been a better option for the car. Its not a sports car!
