Well, to describe it more clearly I drive along a highway known as "Daanghari" which literally means "Kingsroad" its a long stretch of road that connects the southern suburbs of Manila to the many towns and cities of the southern provinces mainly Cavite and Laguna. The route is mostly flat but at times there are hilly sections, its rural in the ling stretch but when I get to my destinations (the cities itself) I usually encounter traffic. Bumps and holes, well the road isn't perfect actually its mostly made out of concrete and not asphalt so its a very rough road. I read somewhere that smooth roads provide a better fuel economy, so I suppose that factor puts a minus to fuel consumption right?
and also I go out early in the morning (6am) to avoid traffic here in Paranaque (which is much worse than in Dasmarinas Cavite). Average speed is 60-70kph at 2.5k RPM 4th gear.
