I still love my automatic, as for noise, it has some road noise, but it is not bad.

How's that? How is it that your car has 1000 more rpm'sbefore redline than mine?
You wanna check that tach again??
It's not really worth it shifting that high anyway. If I would really need to move out, I'd shift between 5k and 5500. Crossover between max torque and max hp.
