I completed a test run with my Geo (that was similar to MetroMPG's test) yesterday. These were the average MPGs (around 7 miles for each speed) in 5th gear with cruise control on (this was driving in rural Saskatchewan into a 15mph wind. Temperature at 26*F):
75 mph = 30 mpg
70 mph = 34 mpg
65 mph = 38 mpg
60 mph = 40 mpg
55 mph = 43 mpg
50 mph = 48 mpg
45 mph = 54 mpg
40 mph = 60 mpg
35 mph = 64 mpg
30 mph = 59 mpg
Just for comparison, when I turned the other direction to head back to the city, the ScanGauge displayed an average 76mpg @ 35mph with the less wind.
