Of course the fuel consumption is always off. Take a look at the EPA testing procedures and compare them to your real life driving. The only real use is to give you an idea of how the fuel efficiencies of different vehicles compare. However since the original post referred to going back to the dealership if the vehicle's fuel economy did not match the advertised numbers, I felt it was a poor analogy.
