The average speed was most likely between 40 and 45 MPH.

Absolutely sure.

See the build thread here: https://ecomodder.com/forum/showthre...mpg-33961.html

Our Caprice wagon has been modified, on a shoestring budget, to seat 9 people, tow 10,000 lbs, and get fuel economy approaching that of a Prius (...of course, not all at the same time). It's a pretty sweet ride.
