Which most likely means there's a lot of room for improvement.

If you don't want to give up speed, extreme streamlining a.k.a. basjoosing is the only way to avoid losing good mpg.

My average highway speed has dropped by 10mph already, just not to/below the PSL yet.
Try the PSL for a while and see what improvement that gives.

Haven't we all ?

I'm driving slower now on the interstate / motorway / highway or whatever you call 'm than I used to drive on the local roads 10 years ago.
Yet I tend to catch up with a lot of the faster drivers as I usually don't slow down for turns, where many a faster driver suddenly becomes an obstacle.
