It might be a decent amount of work but I think 50 mpg on the
highway could be doable. I have got 35 out of my 3.8 Auto Mustang on the highway before with nothing but pumping up the tire pressure and sitting behind a semi for almost 500 miles. My girlfriend is getting 26 - 31 the last few weeks going back and forth to work on the highway in the Mustang. Keep your RPMs down whenever you can, clean up the aero with some wheel covers, side skirts, grill block, body pan, passenger mirror delete, wing delete, antenna delete, wiper shield or delete, switch to synthetic fluids, and do some EOC, and Pulse and Glide and you should get the mpg up pretty good. That should cover the bulk of it I think.
