Common posts in MPG threads:
I'm getting X mpg which is very low, I offer no additional useful information, please tell me how to fix it immediately and without costing me anything.
I don't know what's wrong with your car, I'm getting better mpg than the highway sticker rating (secretly he only got that once and it was because he was drafting his grandmother's car at 48 mph on the highway)
I'm getting a similar mileage, you must be ok.
I'm getting excellent mileage, praise me and beg to learn my secrets.
I got really bad mileage once, here's what my dealer told me was wrong and after I paid him 1200 dollars mine shot up 2mpg more, you should do this too.

Someone else to tell you how the temperature, seasonal fuels, tire pressure, maintenance, and the like effect the mileage and so comparisons are meaningless.
Someone to post that people need to stop worring about 2mpg differences in mileage when you're driving around vehicles that weigh nearly 5k pounds and have almost 300hp.
And last but not least one smart-ass who wrongly assumes he's any better than the rest of you to post this.
I've put all of 70 miles on mine since I got it a few weeks ago, so I'm actually just watching this thread to learn since it's relevant to my driveline, but I thought I'd have a little fun while observing
