Is 21 mpg highway low enough to suspect a problem?

Hi All,

I've got an '06 3.0.

I'm getting about 14-15 mpg around town which hadn't concerned me that much since it's hilly terrain and stop and go.

But I just took my first long highway trip and only got 21-22 over 400 miles with two adults in the car and cruise set at 65.

Is that just life with a heavy car and smallish motor? Or low enough to suspect an issue?

Thnx
