I live and work in the Dc Area so I get roughly 17-18 mpgs. So I'm thinking of upgrading to an SS seeing as 14-15 mpgs vs 17-18 wont be that big a difference lol

Wait another 2-3K miles and you will see a "slight" improvement. My car (LLT) did a similar thing when it was new with about 1500 miles on it it never got better than 23-24. Once it was broken in I saw 27-32MPG per highway trip. But now I drive in the city mostly and I usually never see better than 18 per tank with average speeds around 24mph and some stop light sprints.
I've given up on trying to get better mileage and am looking for more "go fast" instead! :-)

I drive approximately 90 miles round trip (mostly highway) and was averaging 29 to 30 mpg @ 63mph. Just installed a CAI cold air intake about two weeks ago and noticed yesterday I was getting 30 mpg doing 70mph.
