My 2002 Aero automatic gets 89 octane, and returns about 32 highway and an average of about 27.5. It has absolutely nothing to do with living in the tri state area. Like you said in your first sentence" I drive with a lead foot" ! What would you expect? Try it with an egg between your foot and the accelerator ( an old racing school analogy) and see what you get. Gas formulaton in the NOrtheast during winter months can lower the mileage a bit,but this time of year that is not a factor of course. An Aero getting mid teens is getting hammered,plain and simple.
