Thank you Link for your considered emails. As David writes, "evidently, 
not a simple question." Although the milage for the car in question is
consistently very reasonable at 7.1 litres/100klm i still do feel some
cognitive dissonance regarding the overdrive gear's effect on that 7.1
but not enough to consistently drive at 75 klm/hour and get rear-ended.

The 'instant milage' vehicle gauge sound worthwhile, and, maybe should
be mandatory in future? Maybe with a user-set, red-light current usage
resource so one can learn the specific characteristics of each vehicle
in terms of driving style & mechanical settings & driving environments.

Whatever, thanks again Linkers.

Cheers,
Stephen
