If I slowed down 10mph I would save a lot of gas! I would be pushed along by the traffic. The 70 miles is 2 lane TN back roads with 3 stopsigns and 2 stop lights and little or no traffic.
I wanted the SFE kit but at purchase time they did not exist. The Powershift transmission gets better MPG than the manual. This transmission is actually a 6spd manual transmission with dual clutches controlled by a computer. You don't have the loss' associated with a conventional automatic transmission.
I have an average MPG gauge on the dash and thought about an UltraGauge for more instrumentation. I do some hypermilling when I can since the terrain is hilly. Next will be incremental increases in air pressure to see if that makes a difference.
Thanks for the tips.
