I know there are many mpg threads, which concerns me even more because i see many people are getting 250+miles. Could there possible be something wrong with my car? Or do i really just need to change my driving ways.
Op, I'm in Queens as well and also getting the same low gas mileage as you. My daily commute is from Woodside, across the 59th street bridge and up to 85th and Second, total of 4 miles. No traffic, I average 18mpg according to display. I usually put $25 every four days if all I do is commute to work and back.

Today had to run some errands and drove around Jackson Heights around 5-6pm, stop and go traffic. I was averaging 13mpg :thumb down:
