Ran a 100 mile freeway leg in 7th gear with eco selected. Loss of 1500 feet in elevation over the leg. The car returned 34.2 mpg. Pretty impressive IMO. I didn't like the sounds and feel of the cylinder deactivation though. FYI @75 mph

34 here also. My deactivation is smooth. I feel nothing.
I got 41.6 mpg for a "best 50" on my recent trip to Arizona. This stretch was likely coming down the Continental Divide in New Mexico. I had the AC on and cruise control set for 80 mph. It amazes me that I can pass cars on the highway in 4 cylinder mode, get better gas mileage than many of them, and look better doing it.

The average for the whole 5600 mile trip was 27.3. Not bad at all.
