You are at 18 litres/100 km.

On my 3.0, I got 14 l/100 km around town and on short trips, 10.5 l/100 km on the highway when really trying.

18 l/100 km doesn't seem so bad for a 4.6

I just got back from Vegas with it and with my much heavier winter tires on and averaging between 150-160kms/hr, I was consistently 16mpg. It takes a lot for me to dip below that with my summer tires but I am looking for lighter wheels to help with mileage and rotational mass.
