Smart driving, aka no exesive accelerating50+ psi in the tires planning your trips for shopping ect... can get you 16+ mpg I am sure.

Those little cars do help us a lot on fuel!
My 2000 Venture van, bone stock, usually gets 28 mpg. Earlier in July I purchased a DashDyno SPD from Amazon and got the used one they offered. The purchased was justified on the next weekend as my wife and I drove to Detroit for a Tigers ballgame. (3 hours drive one way!) My usual 28 mpg jumped up to an actual 38 mpg on the next fill up!
The trick is to put the fuel meter to use and refine your driving style to enhance the fuel mileage. It took me about a year to get up to 15 mpg on my motor home, up from 10.5 mpg. That's a sweet 50% improvement. I used what I learned on the RV to get the 38 mpg.
