If OK, can't wait to test results coming back from Charlotte NC to Manassas VA tomorrow. Driving down with a good headwind I was struggling to break 40 even with speeds of ~60 on Rt 29. (No trip to Charlotte is complete without driving through Tightsqueeze, VA & then through Danville to scoop up some $2.99 gas--woo hoo)

Amazingly MPG's jumped to 41 @ ~70 MPH with cross wind. Unfortunately going under 65-70 on I-85 is almost a death wish
I wouldn't think there is anything wrong with using it. Go for it.
