I've only seen a couple helpful posts. The one that would help me the most is the guy who said he took his car to the dealer. Someone else asked what the dealer did - look at the invoice.

I would love to hear what the dealer did so when I take my 99 SE 6 cylinder in there, which used to get 33 on the highway and 500 miles per tank, and now gets only 26 to 27 mpg, I can have some knowledge about what to suggest and what to allow...

ive gotten roughly 200 so far on half a tank... ive been driving pretty conservatively from a full tank so far just to see how much i could get... i only floored it a few times here and there.... that about right? so maybe 400 ish full tank?

anyways nobody answered my question earlier.. how much is a full tank of gas? 16 gallons??

Ive been geting about 200 to 275 depending how i drive. I think that i might have to suck it up and take it to the dealer. It just turned 80k last thursday.

I'm typically getting 350-400 miles per tank. I'd like to see charts which indicate the Speed/RPM/Fuel Economy - to see the most efficient speeed and tradeoffs
