Also, I'm just going to let my signals blink fast. It's annoying, but only for a few seconds at a time.

I *think* that my UltraGauge reports something in the neighborhood of 40mpg instant at 25 in 5th... this shows as like 1000 RPM with a 195/60-15 tire... since my tires are 5% oversize (205/65) I’m actually going maybe 27mph... additionally, I’ll use 4th in a school zone at like 850, but literally just barely enough throttle to maintain speed, no extra load at such a low engine speed...

And I also deal with the hyper flash since I replaced my DRL/signal bulbs with LED... no flasher delay to change out and I’m not adding a resistor to the circuit...
