I go 55-65 generally, and sometimes 50-65. Forty is too slow on a freeway and you might cause an accident if it's crowded or get a ticket when it's not. I have also had good results doing P&G with the engine on. Here is a test I did: http://ecomodder.com/forum/showthrea...tml#post252933

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
