42% Increase in MPG...
A few people have said it, but over the last two weeks I have tested it, and found a HUGE difference, just by adjusting my speed. All speeds were on cruise control and tested on I-25 between Fort Collins and the E-470 Exit (About 45 Mile trip).
Speed MPG (Highway)
--------------------
55 17-18
65 15
75 12-13
In Colorado the speed limit is 75, minimum is 55 on most highways.
So...do the math:
12mpg to 17mpg is a 42% increase in Millage. Yea, 42% increase and all you got to do is go 55 on the highway. 42%!!!!!!!!
Going 55 does SUCK BIG TIME, but for 42% savings with these gas prices do you really need to go 75 all the time? Ill stay in the right lane and do 55 until the fuel prices come down and enjoy my 42% savings.
BUT.....once my supercharger goes on I think my driving habits will change a bit -))))
