Well, we drove Miss Tang to Indy and back with the cruise set at 55. Our previous best best mpg was 30.8 at 50 mph, but this time we hit 31.7!!! I noticed that if we were doing 50 it used more fuel than at 55....for a short time (between the few far spaced lights) we were teetering at 33...too bad there were red lights involved. It is BARELY under 70,000 miles now.
