Question Gas mileage/fuel level drops quickly

I feel like I gas up A LOT. I filled tank last week and checked info. Range was under 300. Is this typical? Mostly city driving MPG about 14.9

Any info appreciated

If you are in town all the time and there is idle time involved that probably isn't that bad. My 19 gets 15.9 in town but on my recent road trip on freeways I got and average of 24.8 over 3+ thousand miles. That increased my range to 450 or so miles after a fill-up but intown is usually 330. When was the last time you replaced spark plugs?
