The engine is SAE certified to 285 hp (213 kW) at 5300 rpm and 305 lb?ft (414 N?m) at 3900 rpm on regular unleaded gasoline
Yeah, and who wants to travel long distances with the engine screaming at 3900RPM?
Most people freak out if the engine's turning over 2000.
The torque curve on that V6 is very steep/peaky as I recall, meaning it doesn't make much torque until it gets in the higher RPM ranges. You won't be loping along at 1900RPM on the flat ground. It'll be more like 2800.
