Gas Mileage is 20 on trips.

I am getting 18 MPG combined, but around town "City" about 15 MPG.I generally drive the car 150 miles a week and do track the fuel mileage every fill up, do this as it is a good gauge of the engine's health, if mileage drops there is something wrong like point gap or whatever.
