Well the last "performance" car I had was '72 Mustang.351 Cleveland HO,3.55 rear and a 4 spd. At 60 MPH in 4th -3000 RPM or 900 RPM more then my '06 5.4 at 70.
Wife has an '11 ford escape,240 HP V6 W/6 spd auto.70 MPH-2000 RPM in top gear and it doesn't do a lot of shifting unless it's towing.
As to the high HP and Tor. numbers with the high RPM's on the new 5 L ford in the F150 with a 6 spd. auto,well big numbers but there is no need to run them up that high in normal use, IE what a F150 would be used for.
The old 4 spds.-they were pretty stout X/MIS but not as stout as the ZF 6 and no where near as versatile.
No need to sweat shifting a handshaker in your new truck any more,you won't be able to get one so equiped.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
