I hope I'm not jinksing it, but the last 4 or 5 fill-ups, I have been getting 19mpg's or better. Before I would get around 18 on a good tank with hwy driving, 16ish on a tank with a lot of city driving. I filled up yesterday and I got 20 mpg's. My best ever. I would say it's the warm weather, but I never got this good of gas mileage last year, and I haven't changed a thing. About a month ago I get high 16's, low 17's so I figured I would change my fuel filter (eventhough I only had about 10k on it) but never got around to it. Then all of a sudden, BAM, 19 or better. The last tank was about half city (and I was late everywhere I was going, so I wasn't driving easy) but still, 19.
Only thing I could think is that it is the 255/85 tires I put on before Christmas, coupled with the 80 degree weather we're getting.
Anyways, kinda random, but I've been jealous of all the guys saying they get 20mpg.
