Well I totally agree that more info concerning specific models optimum speeds and the such should be available, and the lack therof can be frustrating, but It's really hard for the EPA to put out MPG numbers for different speeds, etc. just because cars are so extremely different. I've seen speed to MPH charts that show some cars maxing out at 60, and some as low as 40.
And frankly, I will embrace a national decrease in highway speed limits. 65 in my book is too fast and 75-80 in some places is way to fast, not to mention that most people go 5-20 over the speed limit anyway. Let them lower the speed limit and let them start giving out speeding tickets in earnest for going over. Maybe it'll teach people not to waste gas, and it'll help people like me to not feel like a jerk when I go 50-55 and everyone is whizzing by at 75. Their wallets will thank them for it when they pay less at the pump.
