Based on a manual transmission in 4th Gear.

With our automatic transmissions you can lop off at least 800 rpm. At 70 mph I turn 2100 rpm...

I've been to a couple of good gear sites that let you enter all your gear ratios (first, second, etc.) along with tire size and axle ration and they'll give you speeds in each gear at various RPMs. They do NOT, however, take into account the torque converter. Still pretty helpful.

And I still have some gear questions in my mind. Just a matter of how far I want to go, I guess.
