This guy in another forum once used cruise in 4th gear, so that he would still be in the turbo- he hated feeling the lack of power... in cruise.
I had a relative that would leave my Insight in 3rd gear on the highway, and drive at 80+. He would often return it to me with something like 35-40mpg on the dash.
