Wifey's been hit a few times too.
And today is the day I fill up the MB and see what kind of mileage I got Whee
It should get better after I do more of this maintenance, and since I read the shift points are actually lower than I thought (gotta guess without a tach). Manual suggests, for best economy, going to 2nd/3rd/4th at 13MPH/22MPH/32MPH.

I'm all but certain it's going to be 20+ but I can't tell for certain since I have a wonky ground causing a fluttery fuel gauge needle.

I know, no one likes the actual "truth" to interfere with their rhetoric.
