Looks like you have the V6, mine is a 4 cyl. so it may not react exactly the same but mileage is pretty similar for both. Being able to view instant mpg is extremely important for the above reasons and more. It is virtually impossible to tell the difference between 20 and 35 mpg with your foot. I have never seen a fuel graph, this is a family car remember, but I find in mine that I do better accelerating with traffic. I found revving to 2500 ish works better for me. The engine seems to use about the same fuel getting up to speed but for less time. Then I let right off and try to just barely maintain speed with a little pulse here and there if it drops off. My wife drives the car mostly during the week now so there isn't much hypermiling gets done anymore.
