No worries. About 20% of each tank is used in what falls into "city driving" but it more like "rural town driving", slow speeds, stop at lights, occasionally stopped by trains and the random cow, deer, or turkey. I do occasionally go into the "big city" (Atlanta) and see a drop accordingly. Even in my worst tank though I've not gone below 27, and that one involved all day city driving and sitting in traffic jams. Of course, the car uses very little fuel just idling, it's that 5 to 35MPH stop and go that kills it for you.
