I've probably posted this before on this site, but it's pretty illustrative. My  family car comparison. The leftmost blips for each car are low-speed P&G results. The next-to-left dips are next-to-top gear cruise control results. The rest of each graph are top gear cruise control results read from my scangauge. In the case of my Sentra, they're confirmed by day-long 400 mile drives down and back to/from my mom's home.
