Wow, Au, my GTI would pull from 1500 even in top gear if I was crass
enough to burden it that way, but at least let the good folks
understand the GTI's idea of top gear: it spins 3K rpm at 55 mph in
5th, not exactly my idea of economy gearing.  (Actually, that's just an
extrapolation, as I don't spend any time at 55 ;-)  With such low,
tightly spaced gears, it isn't so surprising that it can pull in 5th
at low revs.
