I recently went on reserve at 170 miles. It took 5.2 US Gal to fill back up. So, 32.7 mpg. I believe I've seen 36 - 38 mpg in the past.

I spent most of that tank riding between 85 and 100 mph @4-6K rpm on the interstate. Maybe 60 miles in town, stop and go between work and home.

I usually use 92 octane.

I'll try to run between 3 and 5K rpm on this tank and see if it improves.
