I get around 230 miles per tank as well. Bumper to bumper traffic for most of my commute doesn't help, plus my 5 speed, 3.90 gears, and periodic spirited driving. It could be worse i guess, but it could be better. cross country last summer i hit almost 30mpg, but it was all highway, all day long.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!
