    I also get better gas mileage.

    I get better gas mileage with the Power button on all the time. I get at least 30 - 40 miles better per fill up. I also use Mobil 1, KN air filter, PV muffler. (Not to mention 33" tires.) Vehicle is an Isuzu Axiom.

    I can understand power mode increasing MPG for city driving. But I do lots of highway driving. I just don't understand how power mode will help my highway MPG.

    I suppose it depends on the type of highway but over here in the UK the one I use daily is fast flowing but full of trucks, I need the ability to accelerate and change lanes fast. When I changed my tyres to a larger diameter I lost the usual umph, the power mode has given it back but isn't costing me gas as I originally thought it would.
