One thing I am confused on from studying these mileage charts and reading tips about speed...



It shows that most of the vehicles receive the best fuel economy between 25 to 45 MPH compared to highway speeds...yet I've read that the best way to receive the best mileage is the lowest speed in the highest gear on your vehicle.


So, naturally...we all know top gear is not around the 25-45 range...at least not for me. My Camry kicks into overdrive around 50 MPH and near 1800 RPMs...



So, which is true or am I just a novice that's missing something here??? Lol
