I read the manual and found out how to shift and run in 5th/OD. I've had my 2010 Titan since November. I think I've put 5 or 6 tanks of gas through it and getting about 14+ mpg so far driving in 4th. I was stoked when I found out about 5th gear because most of my miles are on the highway so I thought I'd get a mileage boost. Didn't on the first tank anyway. got 14.1. I also don't care for the way it drives in 5th. Kick down on acceleration seems more abrupt especially in cruise control. It seems to shift up to 5th too early also. I feel like I'm still trying to get up to speed and then it levels off on me.
Is this the general impression of how it operates in 5th/OD? I'm tempted to just keep it in 4th all the time. Before I discovered 5th I was pretty impressed with how the transmission operated and how the truck drove in general. Over hills and on level.
