OP here: Thanks to everyone for all the great responses. I wasn't expecting so many but it made me think more about it. I do mixed driving it's all suburbs, backroads and highways. The car reads 21.7 mpg but I have not reset the trip odometer in over a 1,000 miles so that could be a culprit as well but I would still think it would do better than what it's displaying still. Although, my tank doesn't seem to last that long. Always under 300 miles per tank so I'm really not sure what to do. I did break in the engine first and all my accelerations are under 4,000rpm except the occasional backroad driving but that doesn't exceed 6,000rpm. I redlined it once it first gear so nothing crazy from my end really. My car is a 2013 that had 178 miles on it before it was purchased from test drives and service guys so I'm not sure if they floored the hell out of the car before I received it. So I'm not sure there could be any effects there. I'm just curious to the few people were posting low mpg ratings with a good amount of miles on their car and then the people getting great mpg. What would I have to get checked if this keeps up next time I'm at the dealer? I thought it was a new car thing but I feel like it's not getting any better. If not worse I would say.
Thanks for all the help everyone!
