Welcome to EM! What is your commute like?

My commute is about 15 mins at 80 mph, but I have been experimenting with slowing down, and it takes about 25 mins at 65 mph. I live a ways away from Charlotte and merging into traffic is always crazy, so I have tried to get my speed going sooner so that I don't rev as high. That alone has raised my MPG's a little, as well as a drop in K&N. I routinely average 25 on the hwy now. I have hit 30 a couple times, shockingly , as that 4.0 likes to get rather thirsty at times!
