Cross referance car ( and driver speciific) MPG / CPM - then i think you have a winner.
60 vs 70 for "Normal Driving" (thinking the sub 1 hour trips)would...
- cost you XX minutes
- save you YYY Dollars.

Now to use the SG to fill in some data points. Maybe my next long highway trip i can set the Cruise and gather some "steady state" FE data at 55 - 60 - 65 - 70...
