What rpms at speed?

Greetings All,

I just bought a 2004 (Heritage) F150 with a 4.2L, 5-speed, 3.55 rear end and the stock 255/70R16 tires. My truck doesn't have a tach so I don't know what rpms I'm at for a given speed.

Could someone with a similar truck tell my *about* what rpms I'm at in 4th and 5th for a given speed? I can then do a little math to figure my rpms at the speed I'm curious about. I realize there will be some speed-o error; my truck, for example, is doing an actual 69-mph at 70 indicated.

TIA,
Sean

I did npt want to screw up the columns so I posted this seperatly. 1st column is your speed the second column is your rpm in 1st gear the third column is your rpm in 2nd and so on.
