Do you upshift at such high rpms all the time? I feel like my average MPG is taking a big hit when I do that, but it feels so gooooood.

Do you upshift through each gear too? like 1st to 2nd to 3rd to 4th at those rpms... or do you just jump from say 2nd to 4th since you're already moving so much faster?
