Thanks Lafiro for the additional information above and the friendly communication as a whole. I think you have done a lot of things conscientiously trying to bring about some improvement. Let's hope that it is just the gas that has caused you the relatively low F.E., as the dealership seems to have claimed. Frankly 26-32 mpg (US) is not too good but also not extremely bad. IMHO, improvements are not impossible.
There are better ways to drive to save fuel other than just to drive like a grandma

. Here are some tips that may be worth going through (again, if you already have):

There are lots of similar tips on the net, with some contradicting the others. I have chosen this particular link for you because among others, Tip #7 thereof seems quite relevant

.
Please keep on reporting your progress on this thread if you don't mind.
Thank you in anticipation.
