Currently enjoying a Bud Lite and some Admiral Nelson with my dinner. Anybody have a car related topic they want to discuss?

How many gears are too many?

I think that depends on the car. Mine has 6 which may or may not be necessary. Definitely helps fuel economy on the highway.
When you get up to 7+ in an automatic I feel you're approaching cvt territory

If you're bored, go on the FP and tell one of the people complaining about the miata they're wrong.

I'd say 3 to 6 is right on. Beyond that you are either getting carried away or compensating for something.

I fully agree. But how about using a greater number of gears to achieve better mpg?

My post on oppo about the subject got a lot of attention. Patrick George even commented.

haha oh boy. Im still grey'ed on the FP, so I could say the Miata is the worst thing to ever happen to mankind and still get away with it.

Someone who is that concerned with fuel economy can take the damn bus and not have to worry about it or accept the fact they will always contribute to emission problems. This is what always annoys me about the green happy people. I understand where you are coming from, yes it is something we need to be wary of. But your hybrid runs of electricity that was probably generated by coal plants.
