What kind of real world mileage are you all getting? I average between 25-26 miles per gallon every fill up. And does anyone else love watching the mileage go up right after filling up with gas when the gauge resets itself?

I get about 20-21 mpg. This is with half city/half freeway. Only mods are an intake, exhaust and short shifter. I use 89 octane from Chevron, only because the mid-grade makes me feel better.
