Yep, that's what I want to test. Gain at a steady 50 mph. Most of our driving is at steady speed at a specific RPM so that test will be interesting to have.
We will see the gains on a tank anyway by driving but we'll have all the other variables : traffic, weather, speed, type of roads...
I probably won't gain as much as in the test since nobody drives 100% in 5th gear. But I'm optimistic for the gains, I'm hoping for 3,30 l/100 km, 3,25 would be amazing.
