Not quite sure how having your car sitting while running for 15 minutes is going to improve your gas mileage.

Constant speed, flat highway, yep cruise control, cool temps, light traffic, pretty much all fell into place on that fateful day. When I drove to Ohio from Texas a few months back, my average for the entire trip was 22mpg, to include city driving, I dont drive like a grandma either, but I try to stay in a high gear when possible.
