[QUOTE=masraum;12386078]To get 30 mpg, I'd probably have to do all of the hypermiler tricks. My commute is 84 miles of interstate. I generally have my cruise set at 83. Last year, I very consistently got 21.5mpg. This year, I very consistently got 22.5mpg. No idea why, and I noticed the same in my wife's car, about 1mpg more than last year, so it's not just me or the car. I do pass people, and that often means that I run up to 100-ish. I occasionally hit 110-115. So yeah, I'm sure I could get more, but I think it would require a lot to get up to 30mpg, and I don't think I could pull that off. I don't have that kind of will power.

Yep. I have seen 30mpg in highway miles on the 5 fwy heading south @ 65 cruise with 2009 Cayman PDK and LOTS of CHP enforcement. I don't think 65 mph is acceptable on the highway in central Texas. You would get run over quickly by long haul trucks.
