Poor gas mileage S320

I am only getting an average of 15.6 MPG in mixed hwy/city driving. The air is set to mid 70's and I don't drive with an especially heavy foot. Is there anything other than the usual suspects ie; tire pressure, hot rodding, etc. that I should look at?

Could be your oxygen sensor... Does your exaust seem overly rich?
