Yes! Torque is the best. My family has a house on Raquette Lake in the Adirondacks of NY. On the drive up there from CT there's a monster hill in North Creek, about a mile and a quarter long straight up. We've always taken my mom's minivan up there and it just locks itself in 2nd gear and revs at 4k RPM to whimper up the hill at around 50. This is a 3.8l V6. I love taking my Saab up there though because I can leave it in 5th (with manual mode, although it stays pretty well in auto mode) and about 2500 rpm with the boost gauge pegged and fly by people in the passing lane doing about 70 up the hill. All the while getting 32 mpg!
