Results from my new years trip.
On my way out it was open road so I decided to cruise faster than normal to see the difference in fuel mileage

On my way home traffic was a bit thicker so I opted out of taking a pic while driving lol, but here is what I got with the cruise control on 65 instead of 72

Trip was about 100 miles each way
pulling with a 5.3l Silverado 3.08 rear end
pulling roughly 4500lbs in reasonably calm winds with some gusts
