Better shifting after 15K. ?

I've noticed that my car is shifting better and running better since my 15K service. I am almost at 20K and it just seems to do much better as she breaks in ! Is this just me ?

I'm at 15200 and I notice a diff... I haven't had the 15K serrvice yet and I understand that they change the trans fluid and filters then. That might make a diff. My mileage has been pretty steady at 25.5 or so MPG with a mix of driving with a good dose of quick acceleration mixed in.

Most people's cars run much better as the miles on the car goes up.
