If you have to redline to pass mini vans you are doing things wrong.

Has nothing to do with MT vs AT. I’ve never owned a car (or truck) where the power is good and then goes stagnant for nearly 3000rpm. Sure you can shift around it but the window is way to big to easily ignore. Maybe people that don’t complain haven’t driven many performance cars in the past or are just apologists. E85 has almost entirely solved the dip for me and it’s a night and day change.
