Default fuel milage

I have a 2001 trailblazer 4x4, what fuel milage are you guys getting? the on board computer says im getting an average of 17.1- 18 mpg.

Is this normal, it seems kinda low, i usually only get about 400- 450 kms max, out of a tank also, 68l tank i think.

thanks for the input

You all need to do some service work.
I was getting 15mpg before my tune up. Normally I am in the 19mpg range. 70% highway, 25% around town.
