No driving with a lead foot here, that's for sure!
Can a partially dirty fuel filter be an issue?
What about a dirty maf?
I should ask the dealer to check the o2 sensor readings just in case.
She recommended to try a fuel injection service, because the previous owner might have used 87.
The commute is 60% highway and 40% local. Barely any stopping.

^^That would be the first thing to check. And check for any stored codes. your lambda value should be near 1.00 +/- 0.02% with the engine running.
What kind of tires do you have? OE sizes? And what pressures? I would also take out your air filter and see how dirty it is. The fuel filter is part of the fuel pump... and it should not need to be replaced yet. Probably around 80K or 100K miles.
You might even want to check the trans fluid and level. Also the diff fluid. It won't hurt to change those out. Changing spark plugs wouldn't hurt either.
Also what kind of oil are you using? Maybe the previous owner put something really thick in the engine?
^^^These are the things I would look into.
