Becuase it does it every time I drive it in the moring and when I get out of work (after 8-9 hours). Ps I have been babying the hell out of it to trying to get the best mpg I can. So far I reached 44.6 and it is winter here in rochester ny. =)

Let us know what the dealer says, will you?
That is damn good mileage.
I have yet to do a lot of hiway driving, and the best i've seen is 36.2 in mixed driving on the first tank. I now have about 2000 miles on it, and i'm running 5w30 mobile one synthetic & OEM filters. I get the filters from trdparts4u.com for like $30 a ten pack w/ free shipping, & no tax.
Not bad. I figure the car should pay itself off in about 2-3 years, just in gas savings alone.
Plus i can keep my other nice rigs in the garage where they stay clean in these wet, cold winter months.
