I agree with THAT!!
I am only on my 3rd tank, but am at 42-43 MPG, mostly highway. I can see the MPG go down quickly when tooling around town in stop-n-go traffic. Short trips are generally a killer to high FE in any vehicle. The hybrid is no different - in fact, it may be more sensitive than the average vehicle. Your short commute certainly does not make it easy. There are those that achieve high MPG even with short commutes, but I imagine they work very diligently at it.
