Message	when I go a bit slower, but I have always downshifted agressively(the back ends slides out if I do it now with bald tires) and accelerated hard in traffic. I just didn't realize it would make that big a difference over a trip like that. I have gone easy on the speed, and just cruised on the trip before, but always floored it btwn speed zones, around slow cars, from lights, etc. I figured the 8-10mph slower speed would have the larger impact over 200-300 miles, but that does not appear to be the case.
