Back in the day of 2 stroke diesels, 13 speed road rangers were the king. Cars had two speeds. Now, most trucks have 8 or so gears, and most cars have 6 (or more) gears.... I know the why - because the motors available needed more gears to stay in their power band - but with today's motors, why would you design cars with 6 speeds?
Or more to the point - in a super light car - say 2000 lbs wet - why would you need more then a 4 speed?
