Journey's auto, not a stick shift. + paddle to upshift, - paddle to downshift. Maybe you can try upshifting around 3krpm.

You can't be serious are you? It's an automatic!!!! Paddle shift whenever you want, there is no clutch. The only thing you have to watch for is bouncing off the rev limiter.

^^That's what I was thinking. All I'm saying is using the paddle shifters is easy. The car will let you hit the rev limiter without upshifting for you. I probably wouldn't do this repeatedly, but you will not blow the engine.
