Your mileage does not seem out of the ordinary.
Winter diesel gets less miles per gallon.
Adjust driving style, (good reports recently on the Scan Guage II, which gives instant read fuel economy - want one) all the usual suspects after that.
Low-rolling resistance tires? Mine have an extra 5 plus psi in them.
Maintenance, air cleaner, fuel filters, wheel bearings.
Turn off the AC when not needed EC function.
What mix of driving you do? City vs. Rural, stop and go vs. highway, 55mph vs 80mph....
Mine seems to get about what yours is, but there are several short trips in there.
Others will respond as well... Oh and clean the Intake Manifold, been meaning to do that myself. Check Injectors too...
