S or E button mileage difference 850

i second what klaus has typed.

no measureable difference that i've found in "around town" driving. i read that it is merely a slightly different programming that tells the transmission to choose higher rpm shift points with "S"port and earlier or lower rpm shift points with "E"conomy.

i use the sport when climbing hills and driving around town, and then use economy when there are no/low hills and highway driving.
