i was using the steptronic in city and then i went to freeway and realized that it won't go in overdrive if its in steptronic. reason is, usually in D, i am doing 75mph at 2900 rpm, with 5M in steptronic it was a little over 3k rpm. Is there no way to make it go in overdrive?

i did end up putting in D to get better mileage and lower rpm as it was feeling strained. Any suggestions?
