Exclamation My 06 Civic Hybrid getting horrendous mileage!

I just got my new 06 Hybrid w/ Navi about 10 days ago, and so far my MPG avg is 28.4 over 120 miles. My last 25 miles, which I have been driving extra conservatively, has been getting only 33.2MPG! I know this is a small sample to go by and the car has yet to be broken in, but isn't this still unusually low for the Hybrid? I've read of people driving out of the dealer's lot with 40+ MPG easily. I didn't get a chance to check my gauge @ 62-63 miles for the 62mile bug, but I'll make sure to keep an eye out @ 124 miles. I really doubt the car has the bug as it's a 02/06 build (according to the date on the door), vin # 11990. What do you guys think? Should I be concerned, and if this is a ongoing problem 500+ miles in, would my dealership do something for me to have it resolved or would I likely be out of luck on this type of issue?
