Default not from my experience...

leaving it in gear always yields low 20's. By coasting in neutral for 35 miles (not the whole time obviously) I managed to get my mpgs up to 30.

Default Coming back from Vegas is all downhill. What was your mileage going there. That's the real test!

I use about 1/3 of a tank less coming home from vegas than I do doing there. Granted this is in a Nissan Maxima but you get the point.

Vegas set it up this way so that you can make it home when you are broke.

Default Northern Maine is phenomenal for high speed driving......

It is DESOLATE up there. Flat as a pancake. You can see for miles, and the light is such that it isn't washed-out bright like the deserts in the west. Did 100+ for a few hours continuously from Augusta to the Canadian Border a number of years ago.

Default Only 8.9 MPG? That sounds like the fuel economy of a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Yenko.

Or, the fuel economy of a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS454 LS6.
