Are you folks are still arguing? To the ones who say you can't do it (we impede traffic, it's illegal, no one else does it, ad nauseum), poppycock. I just rented a car in Pennsylvania, averaged 40 mpg indicated by going 50-55 mph on the PA Turnpike (PSL 55-65 mph), and racked up 474 miles on ~12 gal. If I'd pushed as fast as everyone else on the turnpike, I'd have had to top off the tank again before returning the car.
Rather than talk about how you can't do it, you naysayers should get off your duffs and just do it. There's nothing sorrier than someone who says it can't be done while others are doing it.
