I've decided that 3rd gear is my favorite in the truck. Its V6 is decently torquey and it pulls well in 3rd. 1st and 2nd are both a waste.
The Porsche, on the other hand, seems to feel best in 2nd. Same with my Talon, which would spool out best in that gear.
I was thinking this had to do with the balance between the torque bands and the gearing, but I recall the BMW felt really at home in 5th and it had neither a particularly flat torque band nor hyper-short gearing (although it was definitely on the short side).
Yours?
