there's nothing wrong, epa estimate for combined is 24 and that is what i get. i have read the gas mileage threads and it was plain to see more people get the mileage that i do than something higher. it has got 27 mpg on 3 tanks of gas and it has 12,000 miles on it. the rest of the time it has been steady 24.3/24.7. it has become obvious that is about all you can count on.

i didn't say you didn't enjoy your car, i said enjoy it for what it is. i enjoy my car very much but i am very aware of it's limitations and i am good with it.
