From another board's post:

i make a 500 mile trip a bunch of times every year and half is 80mph and half is 65.

250 miles @ 80mph
3.12hours 16mpg 16.6gallons

250 miles @ 65mph
3.85hours 21mpg 11.9gallons

cruise control the whole way
65mph part has maybe 4 or 5 slowdowns due to going through towns but no stops.
the 80mph part is a straight shot though on I-75
