MPG decrease after 4k mi.
So, this is the second time this has happened to me with a brand new 4G AWD TL (first was a 2012).
I was averaging 18mpg for the first 4,000 miles and have averaged 14.5 for the past 1,000 (5 fill ups). Nothing has changed in my driving pattern... weather has been the same... same gas, etc. This is the EXACT issue that led me to trade in my 2012 after 11,000 miles.
Does anybody know if disconnecting the battery resets the transmission "learned" behavior?

keep it clean
Have you also monitored your tire's PSI, as this can affect MPG too.

happened to me after the update for the torque convert.
