i am on that list and all i got is moon disks and grill block. after that it is all driving habit change. that is the most gains for me.

Those are good numbers for a mostly unmodded car--even in Houston. You drive mostly freeway, right? Pretty flat ground, yes? What techniques are you using?

Slowing down will give the best results.

yup very flat around here so its easy to stay at a constant throttle posistion. I keep my speed between 55-60 (staying closer to 55) Draft rigs when i can. Then I can EOC for almost a mile getting off the highway. my work is next to the highway and my house is with in 2 miles and all back roads to it. the whole trip i only have to worry about one red light and you can see it coming a long way off so i can adjust speed to catch it green or EOC to it and fire it back off st the rigth time because i have the light sequence memorized.

At such sustained speeds and with a car the color of black, a lawn edging airdam would make an immediate difference, seems to me, and it would look good. Cost is really low and installation is quite simple. Thought of removing the power steering belt? Taking out the A/C relay/fuse for winter?

car is too low for edging. I already scrap the front end on the driveway at home and at work. So it would only make it a few days. The only way I could would be to just do it on the front with no curves to it that way it has the flex it needs. The power steering I will pull the belt off and see what i think along with the A/C. I will do these after the next tank fill. easier to see the MPG differance after a tank rest.
