I agree, our trucks at work are rev limited and wont rev past 1800 rpm when the true red line is 2200 or so. The added fuel cleans the injectors which the automatic ones dont do, the manuals will over rev on down shifts which help those trucks. The mpg is 20 percent higher on those trucks too.

Some Fit owners are obsess with MPG...but I don't blame them. It suppose to be one of the best mpg car's around... and its not due to all the complaints people have been having.
