so i was just wondering, i was driving along the other day and i was going up a hill with the over drive ON (city driving), and i thought about how i had to give it more gas to get up the hill at the same speed, then a day or two later, i went up the same hill, only this time i had my o/d OFF, and it didnt have to shift down and i didnt have to give it more gas to get up, so what i was wondering, if my RPM was at 27,30, and i was going 50mph, would i be getting better mileage than when i was at lower rpm and had to hit the gas a little more... sorry if im not making any sence, i know the max torque hits around 2,500 so thats where i figure i should try to keep the rpm, am i correct?
