Most of my techniques are very subtle. I generally drive the speed limits or slightly under if I can do so without interfering with the flow of traffic. Route selection is a critical component, with the older state and US routes providing a very relaxing drive on a practically deserted road instead of the Interstate at 70 PSL with most people at 75.

The older US routes have PSLs of 60 in the less populated areas.

Coasting and traffic light anticipation are my best weapons with the 6 speed dual clutch transmission.

My average speed for the last tank is 44 MPH right now, but that will drop in the next 150+ miles.
