I love hills. It was a real thrill coasting down the mountains coming back from Blacksburg. I actually had to use engine braking when I got close to 80 MPH behing a big rig. I get better mileage in hill country. Basically west of my house is hills while east is farily flat, but I use every elevation change by pulsing uphill and coasting downhill. I will allow slight drops in speed going uphill and recover downhill. In many cases I can extend my coasting by over 100 % even where the hills will not allow coasting at sustained speeds above 45 MPH.
