oh ya that's good to know - I would rather use a gear than the brakes down a long hill. I would not let cruise control take over on snow or towing a trailer for sure on hills anyway.
The other thing about the CO trip was that was all done above 6K feet for the most part, so that has to use more gas as the motor is down a good amount of power up there.
If I drove my 2016 Camaro with a very similar V8 to this 6.6 it would probably get about 23-24 on the fast run up to NE. But the premium fuel premium is steep here in CO, so it would still only save about $40 in overall costs for the round-trip. And you sure can't carry much gear in a convertible camaro!
