Our Outback Wagon was rated 22 mpg for city. We've only been averaging about 17 mpg city and have about 6,500 miles. Is this all we should expect? We're taking it in again next week for them to check out mpg and auto transmission - has always seemed to be a little jerky. Thanks for any help.

Hello all, I'm new here; we purchased a new Outback Wagon a month ago. I'm wondering if anyone can give me an idea on gas mileage to expect - it's rated 22 - 28. We've been getting high teens to low 20's with about 1/3 hwy and 2/3 city driving. We rented one out in WA state recently and got high 20's on a trip from Seattle - Vancouver - Whistler and back. Love the Outback (automatic), but a little disappointed on gas mileage so far. Thanks, drgolf.
