Welcome aboard!
Performance and economy are not mutually exclusive.
A number of people ask me what I've done to my Mustang to get over 50% over EPA combined estimate. I tell them, "I've adjusted the nut behind the steering wheel." Or sometimes I just tell them, "I've driven it."
Best of luck with your pursuit of efficiency.
