They have 5 CRD's now and they are all getting on the low end of our experiences here.

I did it about 4 weeks ago and they have never updated the "averages"

I'm the Michigan guy in those averages. Yes that's what I get, but that doesn't reflect towing my camper or playing off-road. Doing the same mix of driving I got 15 mpg in my 3.7L KJ so I'm still happy. It's still a 30% improvement.

I don't know where they got those averages.

My two tanks were:

1) 24mpg (70% city, 30% highway)
2) 30mpg (90% highway, 10% city)
