I guess the problem is the Dublin grade I traverse twice a day. Alas...
But I am still open to any ideas on how to improve miles per hour

You new guys are killing me. You get 35-37mpg and you are wondering if you got a lemon? Take some time to read the hundreds of posts in this forum, and you will see that you are getting average to better-than-average mileage. Heck, the 2008 EPA estimates on the TCH are only going to be 34mpg.
