No, I keep my tires at 32 or 33 psi. I'm not a hyper mileage guy, my Yaris gets plenty good enough. Especially compared to my last vehicle, a Ford Ranger.
Though I would like to get my average up, I think the lower mpg is due to winter blend fuel + colder temps combined with a lot of lower gear driving with the 4 speed auto. Plus, during spring, summer and fall, I always have a bike rack attached to my hitch, empty or loaded. Not much I can do about those factors.
