Yes, the altima turns on with OD on and there is a side button on the shifter to turn it off. This thing has a lower rolling resistance than my MINI did, and much more than my Ranger does. So some of this turning the OD off to DFCO is because I haven't gotten used to my new car and misjudged some glides. And as I stated earlier this CVT also has some very long legs, I think the tallest gearing allows cruising at 80mph @ 2K RPM.
I have an 1600 mile round trip weekend coming up this month. I'm going to try to compromise with the wife and get her to accelerate at max of 2k rpm and cruise at +5mph over the speed limit, if I do +5 as well. On wife's fuel log the 45mpg tanks are me doing this trip cruising at the speed limit, which totally pissed her off. But then she gets 29mpg tanks going to work which is about 50/50 highway to city??
