I had a 1100 mile round trip by myself from New Orleans to Dallas a couple of weekends ago in my '06 Aero SC w/auto. I averaged about 25mpg at for a 80++ speeds, with a high of 34.5 for a 200 mile stretch of driving 70mph (at the seed limit) with cruise control on. Seats were extremely comfortable for a 7hr+ one way drive. FWIW, cruise control works at 120+mph...
For comparison, I had a 600 mile round trip drive over the weekend toting the family in our '05 Honda Odyssey EX-L (DVD player comes in handy), and my back and butt was sore for that 4hr one way drive.
I got better highway mileage in my '06 Aero (rated 17 city/ 28 HWY) at 80++ speeds than in my '05 Odyssey (rated 21 city/28 HWY) at 75mph...24.5mpg in the Aero vs 21 in the Odyssey.
