I think the best mileage I ever got was from Reno Truckie to Auburn in Ca. on I-80 It mostly down hill for about 80 miles I was driving the little Saab Sonett with free wheeling. Hit the top at Truckie then let off the gas went down to the bottom of the canyon coast almost to the top of Blue canyon hit the gas for a second pulled over at about 70 then let it go till I was at Auburn hit speeds of 90 had to brake a few time to keep it under that. never checked it but in 80 miles I was at idle all the way except for that 1 or 2 second busrt over Blue Canyon. would love to do that again. But I'm older and smarter now and I drive 55 to 65 and that's it. I figure made it though those young years with a car that would do 130 and live to tell about it so I'm not taking any more chances the car is sitting out back waiting to be restored but not driven at those speeds any more.
