fueleconomy.gov says EPA estimates are about 19 city, 27
highway for your car. But the site also now has individuals'
experience listed, suggesting your mileage could maybe be
higher. Hard to say without more info.

Buy a good tire pressure gage and check the tire pressures
yourself. The "recommended" tire pressure should be printed
inside the glove compartment or on one of the door jambs.
Many of us here keep the tire pressure much higher. E.g. my
91 Civic's "recommended" pressure is 26 psi. I now maintain
it at 32 psi, checking every few weeks, especially after
large, seasonally-driven temperature changes. The higher
pressure gives better mileage but a less comfortable ride.

Do the little stuff listed first, then take an average of
the mpg over say a half-dozen tanks of gas. Report back.
