don't look at the numbers other are getting unless it with same car and trans.

find what the epa rates your car at and work towards beating those. makje sure engine is tuned up, check the basics . tire pressures set at what?? any extra weight you don't need in there. stuff like that. do you have a tach> what rpm's does it show at speed??
