Gas Mileage Dropped Suddenly

Gas Mileage Dropped Suddenly
A couple weeks back I took the 04 to my tech who did a routine oil change and replaced my spark plugs. Old plugs were Denso iridiums had about 35k on them and replaced them with same. I am suddenly finding I am getting about 40 miles less per tank....burning 1/2 tank at less than 100 miles when it used to be 120-130 normal driving. I just now reset the NVRAM in hopes that will help. Any other thoughts?
Car otherwise seems to run just as well if not better than before.

From what I read on here if you had the plugs swapped around there would be more issues than just a slight loss of gas mileage.
These are reasons to be doing your own maintenance though. :P

I know you probably would not do this, but you and a buddy could always take it to some random parking lot and do maintenance. Where I used to live there was a Target that was closed down and the parking lot was free and clear, and also right next to a auto parts store in case something went wrong lol.
