modern cars ar designed that when driving at 110km/h in your highest gear the engine will be running at its best fuel consumption 4 power.
Toyota will have 8 or so engines on a dyno running at this minute working all of that bull shit out, soif you have a modern car then look at what revs your doing at 110km/h in your overdrive gear and thats is the revs at which your engine runs best for fuel consumption.
got a guy at work who's job was in that Toyota Dyno room doing all of that crap

Except that at 110, there's a lot more wind resistance than at 70. It might be a good guide, but I wouldn't say that those revs are right in all real world situations.
