Just wanting to compare...my 1994 ST manual transmission runs 3000 RPM at 65 mph. I've got the 1.8l 7AFE engine. Curious to hear what others' cars are like.

Yep, even the most efficient hydraulic automatic is up to an 80% transfer of energy. Why more hybrids don't come with a manual is beyond me, the first generation Honda Insight is pure genius and has yet to be surpassed.
