If you're in one of those states that uses Methonol in the gas in the winter, your milage will suffer too. I get about 27 mpg in the summer and 23 mpg in the winter. With the Methonol it takes more gas to do the same job and it seems to burn cooler too. I noticed if I fill up in Wyoming where they don't use Methonol my temp gauge reads right in the middle. If I fill up in Colorado my temp gauge reads between half and a quarter depending on if I'm on the highway or city. I have a 5 speed with 3.73's.
