just the other day premium here was 2.75 a gallon and regular was 2.55. :( This really sucks for me because just a few months ago I was getting 29 MPG average.. now that the gas has gone higher my car just now decides it wants to get only 22 MPG average.

Custom I think that the gas is a lower grade, thus lowering your MPG

and thoughts?
