    I tested this on my car as well. I gain about 3 MPG by using the cruise control and adhering to the speed limit vs. Just driving how I want. It’s not worth the difference. Changing to shitty tires was a bigger hit to my MPG than that.

      That is pretty significant difference between what I had experienced, i guess not much more mpg for your vehicle for you vs my own eco vehicle. sorry your car doesn’t experience more efficiency gains. I am good where I am at. My suggestion wasn’t to stop you from achieving what would be higher speeds but rather you will feel the gas pedal be much harder to push. That is all
