Fuel economy at 65 mph vs 60 mph
What fuel economy increase have you observed from pulling your fiver at 60 mph vs 65 mph?

All other things being equal from my very unscientific research (basically, playing around and resetting my DIC MPG calculator) I'd guess it's around .5 mpg.
55 seems to be the sweet for optimal mileage (no surprise that's what the max was set at for years to save fuel). Every MPH over that and you are going to lose economy. Some vehicles may seem to be at a better RPM range and "feel" better but it's still taking more fuel to move that load the faster you go.
