        well, you're going to get better mileage if you drive exclusively on the interstate compared to driving around town.

        coming back from charlottesville one day i got about the same as you, and that's with 3.73s. it wasn't the stp if that's what you're getting at.

          Most I have ever gotten on a tank in my 01 is 330. Strictly freeway driving. In everyday stop and go, its about 220-240. I might try the STP to see if it helps.

            i guess my car is a gas mileage freak. On a whole tank with nothing but highway i can get 450+ miles on my 96 3.8. I usually average between 32-34 on the highway and about 24-26 in town.

              After I used an intake cleaner, injector cleaner and new air filter my MPG jumped up about 90 miles more per tank. I was getting about 215 miles and now I get around 300 with 50/50 hwy and city driving. Not to bad for the way I drive

                i average 27MPG doing mostly backroad driving, which does include some stop-and-go traffic due to lights and stop signs. i do little city driving but i also like to use my A/C.
