Ive also got a heavy foot so I could have better mileage.

That was all before Hurricane Katrina.
Two weeks before Katrina, (mid August), fuel was $2.35 here.

I drove 350miles from PA to MA last week and got 36mpg! That was with the cruise set at 73 mph almost the whole time. When I filled up I couldn't believe it. Just driving around town I get 28-31. this is in my 95 gsr i/h/e ported head, .020 over pistons 10:1 compression, 10k on the motor.

Change the oil, filter, etc. Air filter, plugs, fuel filter, etc.
Run some FI cleaner through.
h
and now I get ~20.

LEVEL UP
My gsr must be really messed up worse than i thought...I've recently replaced the air filter, plugs, wires, fuel filter, 02 sensor, run fuel injector cleaner, on-time oil changes and i check my tire pressures all the time and i am still only lucky to squeeze out about 20-21 mpg. This is even the case when using cruise a lot and trying to drive easy. My car currently has 134,000 miles. I know my thermostat needs to be replaced (its stuck open) and I know this can affect gas mileage but could it drop it this significantly? I have an aftermarket Skunk2 P28 ECU so I think I'm dumping a bit excessive fuel as a result. Plus, I think the previous owner disconnected and messed with a lot of the sensors on the car....
