Car 1: '96 Grand Am (blaaa)
Car 2: '00 Corolla (reliable)
Car 3: Current TSX
The TSX gets the gas mileage that it does, and there's not too much you can do about it really. I'm getting 20.2 mixed (mostly city). An all-freeway trip once averaged to 28. The only thing you can do is implement gas-efficient behaviors like, you know, clumping errands into one trip and all that. Your annual spending on gas is not a function of your fuel consumption unless you hold the mileage constant. So the only solution I found is to minimize driving.

So, don't think your poor gas mileage is a problem that needs fixed. Its normal.
