Where to begin

P0455 = large leak in EVAP system. Not mileage related. Either a loose gas cap, purge valve stuck, or a cracked J hose problem.

Your XC probably is still using the original front O2 sensor. They should be replaced around 120K miles or so and will dramatically improve the mpg. Also look around for leaking vacuum elbows as reduced vacuum will also decrease mpg.
