Like Sammy Hagar - I can't drive 55
I watched the RPM needle yesterday on the way to work and keeping the MPG gauge between 40-50 and a cruising speed of around 65-70 my RPM's were pretty steady at 1750.

As far as the auto start/stop goes I have not been impressed with it on the 28i compared to my experience with the CR-Z, that's why I don't use it. The CR-Z was very smooth and barely noticeable where as you definitely feel it every time in the 28i. I assume this may have to do with how the hybrid engine restarts vs a conventional engine.
