Default question about shifting

I was wondering what you guys thought about this.
Does it hurt anything (other than gas mileage) to ride in 3rd gear at about 4500 rpm for a couple or 3 miles at a time? I was wondering if it gets the gear oil in the tranny too hot or anything. I like the sound of my I/H/E at about 4500-5000 rpm rolling thru town and was wondering if it was hurting anything by doing this.

There really is no reason to be flaming crucial for his comment like this. So from here out lets keep the comments civil please.

Thank you

Actually, my exhaust is kind of mellow and not loud and annoying.

Nah, only takes about 4 minutes or so to get from one side of town to the other. Small town
