I consistently get 20mpg since my 87 was new.  In bad conditions, such as
lots of wind or heavy traffic, I have gotten 18-19 but rarely (this is a
regular 7-pass Wolfsburg van, not a pop-top).

maybe 16 to 18 no more.
Why is this I see so many people get this big milage and I don't?
I think somebody is not telling excact things on gas milage.

Fred, people kid themselves about mpg, also try driving without any shoes on
for a few thousand miles and  read the road ahead better - they're the real
keys to getting better mpg.

And it's getting 22 MPG loaded up as a camper? Oh wait, no... This is an
orange, not an apple. :)
