I use cruise control extensively, and get about the same MPG as coasting down every grade possible because my 4 liter V-6 consumes about .35 GPH while idling. Coasting down a grade in neutral (illegal in Arizona (ARS 28-895)) @ 60 MPG, I can get about 180 MPG. (Legal speed limit is 50 MPH). Going down that same grade @ 50 MPH with cruise control engaged and in DFCO, my ScanGauge shows 9999 MPG. UltraGauge shows 999.9 MPG. As they say, YOUR mileage may vary; one size doesn't fit all. (and I apologize for my earlier cynical remarks about psychics.)
