Thanks for your reply. Low rpms is probably what was happening during the drive. The drive was on a loop with speed limit of 65 and traffic. I was more concern with traffic and how the Newell drove then with the rpm's.

I am thinking the 10 speed shifts at fairly low rpm. Your biggest benefit will be maintaining a speed
coming down a hill. You normally shift down to a gear where your desired speed is meet, and rpm is
+1500. Here the jake should hold you with only occasional use of your service brakes.
