I'm at about 22mpg after a half tank and keeping it under 4k. Change the gauge info screen to the real time mpg setting and watch what happens when you keep your foot on the gas. When I push the pedal to the floor it's around 9 mpg, when I'm coasting on the highway it's around 127 mpg. It's acceleration that uses the most gas, so if you're doing a lot of stop and go city driving and not being conservative with the throttle that's probably what's keeping your mpg down. Conservative driving on the highway looks like it could average high 30's if you're real careful.
