Fuel Mileage with mileage?

I was wondering what kind of fuel mileage your guys are seeing after putting about 50000 miles on your truck. I am currently getting 20.6 on average around town it drops down to about 18 and on the highway almost to 22. I leave the juice set in level 4 or 5 all the time. It seems since I broke about 46000 miles the truck has started to gradualy get better fuel mileage was wondering if anybody else has seen the same thing, and yes I also reset the the overhead after every fill up.

I've been averaging 17.5 recently. I drive mostly in rush hour on highways, and around town. It will get 19ish on the highway at 65mph. I've notice that it's been getting better since it rolled about 34k.
