Actually, in the real world, you can save a lot more gas if you drive a bit
slower! I just drove over 3,000 miles this month. My last minute trip to Key
West was done at 58 to 62 MPH for the most part since I was in no hurry
either way. My 07 Chebbie HHR got as high as 39.24 MPG and had an overall
average of 35.94 MPG. That included all the city driving, construction
zones, driving rains, and other obstructions to steady highway speeds.
