Where you might see a gain is the fact that some Gasoline vehicles have their gearing sweet spot at 55mph, my Dodge gets the best fe right around 40mph, my buick around 45mph, My subaru 360 right at 50mph so it really depends.

when you say "gearing sweet spot" are you stating a physical speed that is a "design spec" ie. something I can look up someplace or something that I would need to measure by making runs at different speeds and calculating? I don't have any way to measure mpg in real time so would be interested in knowing this "sweet spot" for my cars.
