    Have you checked your foot for lead? I have heard this can be an epidemic in some communities.

    I get about 110 miles per quarter and even more out on the highway with about 300-500 pounds of stuff I haul around on 87 octane...Running around town and out in the fields on dirt roads the worst I have gotten so far is 19.5 mpg. I have 3200 miles on mine so far so she isnt even broken in yet.

    you need to lose some weight man.

    Just kidding. I never exceed 2000 rpms. NEVER. Even when accelerating for the freeway or stoplights. It's all controlled.

    The right foot is the biggest influencer of mileage.

    Mine sucks as well. Driving VERY controlled I can eek out 17.5 mpgs, and its only gotten worse. Of course all the pumps around here state "10% ethanol." Not even "up to 10% ethanol."

    ^That's the same as here. I'm getting about 18mpg if I drive conservatively but every place is 10% ethanol and that will hurt your mileage by about 1-2mpg.
