My S28i is down to about 22mpg, and your driving pattern might fit mine.

I drive around town every 2 to 3 days and occasionally have a road trip.

I have scangauge which resets everytime you start up.

I average about 22mpg driving through town even though it can get about 50 mpg at 50 mph.

When I go on open highway instead of driving 60mph and getting 35mpg, I drive 80mph (speed limit) on interstate which can be 23mpg sometimes especially if there's front wind.

My worst average is about best I could get out of RX8 or Dakota 4.7l so I'm happy with mpg for the power it gives.
