With a manual you can be in 5th gear ANYTIME you want. So dont try to tell me it HAS TO be that way because it doesnt.

According to toyota designers yes it does. you should have bought a manual if you want to be in high gear in a hurry. Live with it or trade it for a manual.
Better yet take public transportation and you save a load of gas and we save a load of gas.
