I think the optimal speed for fuel efficiency for most vehicles is around 55 mph, give or take a 2-3 miles per hour.
Edit: I was mistaken, this is from the Guardian:
> The Energy Saving Trust says that the most efficient speed you can travel in a car in terms of achieving the best fuel economy is 55-65mph. Any faster, though, and the fuel efficiency decreases rapidly. For example, driving at 85mph uses 40% more fuel than at 70mph (oh, and it's illegal too).
