...Actually... i do that... i don't floor it, i just try to "lead" the gas pedal. ie, if 3/8 gas would sit at 25, then when i'm doing 25 I have the gas down to 5/8... when it shifts, i drop back down to a little more than cruise throttle... i don't spend much time in each gear... which is easy because it is in top gear at 65km/h (40mph? guess?)
Funny enough, i think the best mileage trip i ever had, i spent about 3 hours in first gear at idle... it was stop/go traffic and i played the accordian by simply sitting there iwthout touching the pedals.
