I think I like the sound of my engine too much

I notice I'm hanging out in the 4k rev range and accelerating quickly, Its hurting my gas mileage and probably makes me look like an asshat to other drivers. I have to get better at being a boring driver. For my pocketbook's and my appearance's sake.

PS- Maybe its the pull too. This thing has so much low end torque that in 1st and 2nd gear it just throws you back into your seat. I like that too, That may be a factor as well.

I know the feels. My little Saturn is so light and geared so low that even at highway speeds I don't have to downshift from 5th to pass anyone. And I still average 35ish MPG on the highway. Man I like the way it pulls. And it can handle the twisties pretty decently as well. From factory came with full independent sport tuned suspension also has front and rear anti-roll bars. I likes it so much I'm keeping it til it dies.
