Recently got back from a trip from Vermont to Arkansas. On the way there, I pulled an empty trailer with a target speed of 65mph, and averaged around 60mpg. On the way home I was following my grandparents at ~75mph, and had a fully loaded trailer (maybe 500lbs of musical equipment and books, plus some weight in the car), and averaged ~56mpg.
Today I drove around an hour to Walmart, set the cruise control to 50, cracked the windows, and averaged 97mpg without any EoC or finessing the throttle. It's good to be home.
