how about you guys?

is there a problem with my engine? i never hit 40mpg

There are too many variables to compare your mileage to others. As long as you are in the ballpark of the manufacturers rating then you're good to go.

I get from 28 to 32 mpg (winter to summer respectively) driving around town. I just did a trip from Colorado to Maryland and back under a variety of conditions and averaged 34.9 for the whole trip.

The 40+ numbers you see are operating under ideal conditions and likely using hyper mile techniques.

i literally have to BEAT THE HELL out of mine to get low 40s per tank, somewhat ideal conditions & hypermiling techniques results in low to mid 50s for me
