I hear and agree fully about the ramifications of the various driving styles. after 150,000 miles of close monitoring, I find my current car gets its best mileage (approx. 24.3 mpg) in the range of 74 to 78 mph. Diffent cars are built to function in different ranges.

55 saves gas for me in my Prius, but the others use it up by hitting the horn and flooring it.

As long as the slowpoke is in the right lane, I’m okay with however slow he wants to go.
It’s when there are two of them puttering along side-by-side that I get a tad miffed.
