i would just put it into 6th...gas saver...unless you want the acceleration response to be there for going around a slow car.

yeah 5th is fine just pay attention to your rpms between 3-6k is good so should be 5th

normal driving just be in 6th gear.

it should be fine for some time but in the long run it'll be bad for the motor because your in higher rpm. it'll be a long time though because the rpm won't be that high.
