Anyone else tracking manually?

What are your driving habits? What settings do you drive with? How old are your injectors and spark plugs? How old is your air filter? What kind of oil are you running? Tire psi? A lot of factors go into mpg, but depending on how you drive and shift will account for a lot of your inefficiency issues. I tracked my mpg with the onboard computer and regularly got 14 mpg by driving the car normally, keeping it under 3 krpm, doing occasional take offs to redline, and mostly driving in the city. I only ever got above 17 mpg when I'm on the freeway going 80 mph+.
