wow! that tells me that it has t be something besides a dirty filter, a clean filter will never give me 10 more miles per gallon or 8 or 7...

check your plugs? for starters gas is getting wasted some where? perhaps your washing a cylinder down and that would not be good... check tire pressures. you def have a problem if your only getting 10mpg. start with the basics. look at filters and then probe deeper
1. get a oil change
2. get a new air filter (k&n) from www.everythingg35.com or any website
3. get a ztube
im sure after an oil change and new air filter you should be fine.

so say i got 240miles on the reset odometer trip A and i fill up next time at 16.4 gallons then i do 240/16.4 = 14.6MPG (average)

I would take it back to a dealer to check it out.
