Interesting data, I didnt' even see the Wiki Link before >,<.

Anyway I think i'm going to try a few tanks taking off slow like I'm doing now and compare to ~80% load take offs (when I can). Seems to me that I was getting better MPG when I have a week of "omg i'm running late, speed up faster!", of course I was braking as late as possible to save time >,<. It's funny that I drive ~50mph now and try not to exceed 2500rpm (shift points at 2200 when possible or less) .
