We can argue back and forth, but you simply can't tell me people arn't swerving and blowing by you doing 55 MPH on 435. 70 is almost worse, since its only a 2 lane (each direction) road, where you can't use the far right lane to get out of the way. People seem to think the best method of passing is to fly up on you, swerve over, and cut off the semi thats already passing you on the left. regardless of who's fault it is, after getting smashed between a SUV and a semi I don't think your going to be in any shape to argue.

I think the next step for me is to try it around 65 MPH with the "pulse/glide" style method described in the stickys, and forget the cruise control. I can defiantly see how it would kill MPG after reading what loren was saying.

However, I did try it at 60 MPH for 3 days, and I only went up to 39.8x MPG. I would have expected more at 60 MPH using the DFCO/gliding methods? Or is the CC really killing it that bad.
