For the people that are getting around 30 MPG what are you doing to obtain those numbers? Are you doing a lot of freeway driving? Do you live in very flat areas? Just curious...

I'm doing about 80%hwy/20%city with some pretty hilly terrain. I don't use the Cruise at all. I've only run 3 tanks so far and am working on the 4th, but so far I like mine. But then again, my last car was a Kia Spectra 5.
The Vues are great if you do a lot of hwy driving. If you're mostly city, you probably won't be all that impressed with the mileage, or so I'm told.
