Avoid heavy traffic, choose routes with fewest traffic lights and turns, avoid idling (bye bye drive thru), monitor rpm/throttle position/engine load. Use momentum when possible.

There are some mechanical and aerodynamic changes on the horizon that I'm going will push me solidly beyond the 30 mpg threshold.
