2005 4.8is. Could it be top of 4th? More likely 5th, right?

If that were an 00-03 I'd say definitely fourth. I'm not familiar with the 6 speed trans but I still think its probably fourth (just guessing). You could always find out for sure in manual mode :-)

Let's assume your gear ratios are these:
Gear Type 6 Speed Automatic Final Drive 3.91:1 1st Gear Ratio 4.17:1 2nd Gear Ratio 2.34:1 3rd Gear Ratio 1.52:1 4th Gear Ratio 1.14:1 5th Gear Ratio 0.87:1 6th Gear Ratio 0.69:1 Then: 120 miles/hr x 5280 ft/mile x 12 in/ft x 1 hr/60 min = 126,720 in/min. Assume tire diameter is 29 in. Circumference is 29 x pi = 91.1 in. Tire rotation speed is 126,720/91.1 = 1391 Rotational speed of drive shaft = 1391 x 3.91 = 5439 Gear ratio = 6200 rpm/5439 = 1.14 You are in 4th gear. |
Looks like 4th to me without even doing the calcs.

I'm more than happy to make the following statement, and can guarantee 100% that I will not be arrested: I did over 140mph on my way to work this morning. A post on the internet is not in itself evidence :) |
