I agree, I drive 60 miles each way to work on the interstate, I can usually go almost the whole time without using my brakes. You just anticipate and slow down. In foul weather (cold, rain, snow, etc.) I drive my 2001 Tahoe to work. While I don't like to, since I have the Harley and the 911 turbo, it just doesn't make sense for me to buy a commuter.
I recently put all new plugs in it (92,000 miles), and did a couple of other small things, and I got 19 mpg. I did have some city driving mixed in there, so I think if I try, i can get 20mpg out of it, not bad for the 5.3L and that big car. This is before all of the cylinder deactivation technology as well, just driving like a sane person.
