I picked a fantastic datum out of Phil's post:
"Since I left Denton 6-1/2 hours late,I went ahead and ran 75-mph with strong winds,grades,up to over 7,000 feet,returning 30.8 mpg"

Uphill, upwind, high speed, 30+mpg. Dang.

I'm not biting my nails over what the Cd is going to be, but only because I trimmed them today. This should be quite something.
