i'm so confused how it the focus picking up an extra gear? focus comes with a 5spd trans.. that is geared super tall.. i just cant imagine a transmission with top gear 62mph 2200rpm to have 'short gearing'

5th gear at 62mph in my integra was around 3250rpm... 80mph is a bit over 4000rpm. that is more like it for an underpowered car. focus needs gears like that.
