Just curious to see what rpms everyone takes it up to under normal driving conditions until their auto tranny shifts. For me, it generally shifts between 2500-3000 RPMS if there aren't that many cars on the road to block my path.

Normal driving sure that sounds about right. Between 2 and 3. Except of course when your getting on the highway, thats where the fun starts! Always try to get the sucker up between 4 & 5 ****s. Oh course you wind up doing 80mph.
Then there's always the 6 grand shift at WOT. POWER BABY POWER

Driving gently, mine shifts at 2500 RPM. Driving a bit more aggressively it will shift at 3500-4000 RPM.

Neither one of those will make any difference in the shift change.

my style is close to this, normal stop sign take off in small streets will be 2100 first, then 2000 second,
normal stop light take off in big intersection would be 2500-3500first, 2500 second, 2000 third. nomral entering highway would be abt 3500 in third picking up speed and enter
