Not to be a "one-upper" but I got 26.48 MPG in the rain, moderate traffic between Federal Way and Olympia today. The only 'mods' I have made are to air the tire up to 44 PSI and remove the two bench seats. I do make sure to go about 1mph slower than the average traffic speed, just to avoid any unnecessary braking.

I guess you didn't check my fuel log. I usually get about 35 mpg on the highway driving at about 55. 90 day average is currently 27mpg. I live on a very hilly island and most of my trips are short. I used to get 15-17mpg on the island.
One upping is what ecomodder is all about. You highway mileage is darn good for a mostly stock Previa.

One of these days though I'd like to try sealing over all the unnecesary seams in the body (maybe use a little tape?), and removing the luggage rack from the top of the vehicle.

Officially referred to as basjoosing. I used foam weather stripping from home depot. Almost invisible. Comes in a bunch of sizes. Luggage rack delete - good.
