I don't know what our high/low free speeds were.

However, I do know we did not auto shift. We just stuck it in high gear until we ran into so traffic, or the drive train was stalling (to prevent tripping the breaker).

Remember kids, it's not about the speed of your drive train, it's how you use it

Merry Christmas!
