There is no overdrive on the Ex. and that is what mine runs at.
 






Perfectly Normal.

Could be worse, my car runs higher than this at 55 :eek:
 






If you toggle the cruise between 68 and 72, you go from 2000-2200 or so. Seems to ride better at 2000. better MPG also. Mine moves from 19 mpg- 23mpg in that range.
