Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
Happy, maybe you could take a video of driving around? 1st gear for all 3.0's should be a really short stump puller gear, what Dragon talks about is when you are trying to pull out into traffic quick, if you drop the clutch and go, 1st is so short that by the time you are doing 10 mph you are almost at redline lol! And I know what he means, 1st is ridiculously short but I think the 3.0 is geared tall to have better response on highway and acceleration (when doing 80 mph in 5th on the highway we are at 4k, so no need to downshift to pass)
