At the time I was playing with different settings, I was doing it for better cornering, so I didn't really look at mpg. I did notice it seemed to roll easier when coasting to a stop or pushing it. It was just a coincidence that I found the best compromise in cornering and stability was with zero toe. I don't consider it unsafe; I've had my car over 110mph and there's no instability.
Of course I was being very attentive at that time too. For those moments when you want to cruise on the freeway and relax, more toe-in works better.
Anyone want to see how I built my own toe gage for $18 worth of parts from the hardware store?
It seems relevent right about now.
