I drove my grandmother's 93 Tarus 3.0L a couple days last week. Its rated almost exactly the same as your car. I ended up with 26 mpg doing nothing but driving sensibly. All I did was obey the speed limit, shift to neutral if I was comming up on a red light, and try not to use the brakes much. These are incredibly simple things to do. Try them out and I gaurentee you'll see gains.
