You are right about being "cross-trained", when I get to 62MPH I automatically look in the rear view mirror to watch the deploy. It is subconscious now, I anticipate the deploy more by feel than watching the MPH. With the 6spd I feel it no matter how aggressively I am driving so it doesn't matter what gear I am in I feel the deploy coming.
The best is when my wife and I leave at the same time and I can watch my other XF from the outside. We both look "Good" side by side at the stop light.
