Ok so here's the thing. I filled up the tank yesterday drove 88 miles. And it used up half a bloody tank. So m getting really crappy mileage. Anything I can do to fix this??

has it been really cold? Mine only gets about 12 mpg when it's cold here(anything below 0). As the temps increase to 30 or so I start to get my normal 16mpg in town. Did it just start doing this? Changed anything lately? More details would be helpful.

I just replaced my air filter, and was looking like I had gained 4 mpg (the thing was filthy....) but then I went to visit my girlfriend in Buffalo, and since the plow drivers clear the path to the bars and stop, I had to use 4WD and destroyed my mileage results.
I have to use 4WD more in the city than out at my house in the country. What the hell.
