Most of my commute (~16 miles each way) is highway, and not during rush hour ( I'm on the road from ~3:15 - 3:45pm and then ~12:00 - 12:20am), so I just try to keep to relatively sane speeds on the highway, and I always use the cruise control. I manage to average 16-18 mpg in my lifted Cherokee.

I removed my Yakima rack & rails to cut down on wind resistance, and I also keep the BFG ATs inflated to 40 psi on the street.
