The I6 is impressive for what it is. I don't have a problem passing, and it gets up to speed just fine. But mine being a 5 speed is always higher up in the rpm range on the freeway. I also don't tow anything, and have never felt the need for more power. But then again, I didn't buy mine for speed like one would when buying a 4.6is.
