Are the front brakes/wheels hot(burning hot) to the touch? If not, I'd be very surprised if that is what is causing your fuel economy problem.
How much city, stop and go driving are you doing to get 14mpg? if all i do is city, i get 15 and change. mixed city/highway getting 17-18 according to the computer.
How's your right foot? If heavy, that is a big cause.

How are you guys getting this kind of mileage? Yes, if I reset the meter and drive some highway I'll show 17-18 but......if I set the meter on Monday morning and live my week that is here, there, everywhere around town with highway and stop and go at the end of the week I show 12-13 or the week. After 18,000 miles my trip "B" which as never been reset show 12.9mpg.
