Default 5000 Gas Increase

So i went to the dealer to get my oil change, at 3200 miles, i scheduled an appointment for an oil change, glovebox change(had some vinyl chips), and gas check. Everything went fine, they told they resetted the ECU, and tested her out on the virtual road machine, and said all C02 levels were fine and all things were where they were suppose to be. I was averaging 250 a tank no flooring at all, and they said you're not suppose to get 20 MPG until 5000 miles, i said ok. Whats the verdict on this is this true?

Except for the first tank, I have always averaged about 20 doing mixed driving including being lead footed. On last trip got 23 but the traffic on I-15 held me down below 85MPH with a lot of 55 speed.

I get a little over 20mpg with mixed driving. The first few tanks I think I was getting about 15mpg. I fill up when my gas light comes on, and I can only get about 15 gallons in the tank.

Hmmm... I average about 12-15. I guess if I drive it like a Ferrari, I should expect Ferrari type gas mileage heh?

my last tank I got 18 mpg which is the best so far and may be attributable to warmer weather. I have about 3000 miles on it.

Not true at all about the 5,000 miles. I have 5700 and I have been getting 19-25 since the beginning.

I think you're overestimating the gas mileage of those Ferraris...
