My 1997 24V Duratec Sable reads 2500 rpm exactly at 70 mph in OD. But mine had recall tranny change in 1999, which is before I bought it. It also rides on215/60/15 tires. I imagine yours has 16's. If I hit 70 mph in drive, it reads 3490 rpm.Does your 2003have a 6500 rpm redline?

 

By the way. I think my stock tire size is205/65/15 which might a small difference.

 

Not totally sure on the tire size. I know its a 60-16 though. My Sable does not show a redline. The tach runs up to 7000

 

2650 @ 70 MPH w/AC on. 96 Dutatec. Great engine!!!

 

I average between 2300-2700 RPMs @ 70 MPH in OD, Haven't driven on the freeway in "regular" drive. I tend to baby the car a bit.

 

My 97 sable with a 3.0 OHV runs at2400 RPMs at 70 MPH. Just drove it from PA to FL, what a GREAT traveling car! Only cost me $100!
