I've got 13K on mine and still averaging about 31mpg.

It's mostly because my daily driving is: 1 mile local roads @ 35mph, 33 miles highway @ 65-75mph, 1 mile local roads @ 45mph, then the opposite in the afternoon.

I also don't leave the revs up when not accelerating. I shift it at 5-6K, but if I'm cruising along steadily I use the gears like overdrive and put it in something where it sits at ~3500 or less. Need to pass, downshift!
