a transmission is more efficient when running direct in the top gear.... but what ratio would the transmission gear sets be? I'm not saying you're wrong, just gave the example of why I like the 5 and 6 speed transmissions....Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

The ratios would be whatever is optimal for the desired application. A drag car would be different that tow truck.
