I'd suggest continuing to adjust the nut behind the wheel. I know I'm always tweaking things here or there to see if it increases my FE. Your current fuel log shows you at ~4% above the 2008 EPA rating. General conservative driving should get you at least 20% above 2008 EPA. If you think you are really already at that point, I'd look at the vehicle to see if there is any maintenance issues with it that may be reducing your mileage.
