Well, dssence, I think your math is suffering from a small representative sample.

I would suggest you fill up your car's tank with premium gas (til the pump clicks off) and re-set the trip odemeter to 0.

Drive, keeping the rpms below about 4,000, till the tank is down to 1/4 full. Fill up at the same station at the same pump (to click off). Divide the miles driven by the gallons of gas consumed (or kilometers/liters).

Do this about 3 times, checking your milage each time. This will give you a good idea of your average gas milage.

Then come back with your findings ......
