there's a lot to consider when youre getting bad mileage out of your car
when was the last time it had a tune up? change oil? dirty air filter? clogged fuel filter? do you let it down the 1/4 tank of gas? maybe sum of your spark plugs are burnt what about your 02 sensor clogged exhaust? blown head gasket? jus kidding hopefully not.

does it idle on all 6 or does it jump around?
have you done a diagnostic... this will most easily tell us what is wrong with the car

Bad fuel Mix
I would definitely look at replacing the O2 sensor. That could make a world of difference if the one you have is totally crapped out.
