I would tend to agree with you (JeremyG) on this from my own personal experiences. I find it better to accelerate quicker to cruising speed where I can maintain lean burn more easily by feathering the go-pedal. Also, the mpg's seem to be much better when you can cruise from 40 miles per hour to 65 miles per hour. At speeds below 40, the vehicle seems to be less FE. All of my most recent tanks have been 50+ mpg using this technique. When I'm accelerating to 40 miles per hour I usually try and keep the bar around 20mpg range then level off at 40-45mph to around 40-60+ mpg range. I've learned to do this without much thought.
