What's your driving style like? No offense intended, but if you aren't light on the throttle, Falcons can be pretty thirsty, also what sort of driving do you do mainly, lots of stop-start city driving, or lots of country/freeway driving where you stay doing a constant speed for most of the time, or a mix?
