This posting is about V6 model. However, your gas mileage should be much better. Ensure you have new, properly gapped NGK plugs. Run some Techron through with the gas (I'd do it twice if you haven't done this before), put Mobil 1 0W-40 in at the next oil change and clean the Throttle Body. This should improve your mileage significantly.
