  Final Drive         4.31:1                         4.15:1
4. High numerical final drive ratio = very short gearing
5. Short gearing improves acceleration

there's a gear "missing" ..... 6th .50:1.00 .. oh wait... that's right (I forgot) ... that'd be a waste of Toyota's time.

That's awesome - let me add my thanks. Any idea what an AT is turning, in RPM, at 80 mph? My MT is turning a numbing 4,000 RPM.

its a mixed bag...at 60-70mph you need to be in 4th to move...
the rpms in 5th would be too low (below the power band) to keep up with traffic...
so you end up riding 4th a lot more...and the rpms are even higher that 5th would have been...

boy, i've learned a lot in three months...i just saw that i started this thread...lol
