I drive 110 miles round trip every day. Usually at 75-80 mph. In a week or two I'll have my 02 Jetta TDI on the road in search of aerodynamic improvements and the best mileage I can get while going fast.

The
60+ Vehicle modifications for better fuel economy - EcoModder.com page will also help.
Don't forget to create your car in the garage and to fill-up its fuel log, this is a great tool to see how you are improving and to motivate yourself. Eco-driving is also a great tool so you should read the
100+ hypermiling / ecodriving tips to increase gas mileage - EcoModder.com page.
Have fun,
Denis.
