Are you 100% sure a 1995 V8 car starts in second gear still? 400E started in first as did the late I6 cars from my understanding.

Doing quick RPM versus gear math, sounds like the car is in 3rd gear to me. Stock 235/60R16s, 1.44:1 for third gear, 80mph equals 3799rpm...before converter slip. Of course the speedo could be off slightly as could be the tach. Which is right around your displayed RPM.

Where is the wide open 1-2 shift? 45-50mph?
