<<According to this document, the optimal speed is 25-35 mph. That supports my argument that 10 mph is too slow.>>

Then why did you post this?

<<50-60 mph is considered optimal for gas mileage.>>

I said the slowest speed that you were in overdrive had the best mileage which your document seems to agree with.

If you had gotten it right in the first place I wouldn't have done my experiment. I turned on my instant mileage feature on my Jeep and got 24 mpg @ 30 mph. 21 mpg @ 60.
