Ca + Cm + Cf + Ci + Cl/My = Cml
Where:
Ca = Cost to Acquire Vehicle
Cm = Cost of Maintenance
Cf = Cost of Fuel
Ci = Cost of Insurance
Cl = Cost of License
My = Miles Driven per Year
Cml = Cost per Mile
********************
Whoops! That's the main equation I care about.
If I understand this right, you are wanting to know:
FEmax @ TImin when in condition Gtop, where:
FEmax = Maximum Fuel Efficiency
TImin = Minimum Throttle Input
Gtop = Top Gear
To that I would ask: What percentage of time does the vehicle operate in FEmax? My guess is <1%, and I think <1% = moot.
