I always did go 80/90mph. Three months ago I had to drive from LA to San Diego for work, the guy I was working for was only paying me $20 for gas. With normal driving; 80mph it will take little less than a full tank of gas back and forth (±$50,-). Not really willing to pay the difference my self I decided to not go faster than 55mph and to hang as much as possible behind big-rigs. I did the trip on less than half a tank; I've learned my lesson.

I is pretty hard to stay at 55mph and pretty challenging, but also very relaxing at the end.
