it will use less fuel. im not interested in doing burnouts, just getting the best economy from the 5.0lt. i do mainly highway km's.

Lower your speed on the highway if you want to use less fuel. Simple

Sit on 100km/h rather than 110km/h, you'll notice the difference.

sitting on 100 instead of 110 is probably more dangerous. trucks will always be over taking me. there 105 speed limited.

@ 100 or 110 the car should be only using 6-7l/100.
And as stocky has said - getting there will hurt your economy more. Your town economy will struggle labouring the car up to speed.
