I just purchased a 2008 SL AWD Rouge and with 850 miles and i am getting
17miles per gallon, i called the dealer, they are telling me it is not broke in yet and are telling me it may be becase i use the regular 87 octaine unleaded gas.
at a travel speed of 65mph the engine rpm is 2200 with the overdrive engaged.

I am now 5000 mi and getting a whopping 19.89 miles per gallon, the dealer has stated there is nothing wrong because there arent any indicator lights on.
does any one have any ideas what to do?

So many factors involved in gas mileage. One thing I would do is watch the tach. That CVT could maybe not be going all the way "up the slope" (or is it down?). Don't know if an Indicator light would come on or not. Your mileage is definitely not good.

Just got my 08 Rogue last Thursday SL 2 wd and am getting 26.5 for the first 450 miles. I swapped a 07 Murano for the Rogue and found that with the CVT you have to drive like an egg is under the accelerator otherwise the power kicks in.
 
The first 100 miles we got 32mpg but that was running 45-55 through the country.
 
Dislikes: rear seats do not recline for the kids on long trips
 
Pros: 1. mileage as posted so far and the car it not even broke in
          2. comfortable seats 3. adequate room 4. great storage 6. plenty of power for "driving"

It seems there is something wrong with my Rouge, I am still getting only 19mpg with over 5000 miles on the car.
The dealer is saying there is nothing wrong with the car and instructed me to call Nissan Customer service, I did as instructed, Nissan customer service told me they called the dealer and then resited what the dealer already told me ("Your gas milage is normal") and there was nothing they could do to help me because there was no trouble light on the dash panel iluminated.
 
Nissan Buyers Beware, if there is a problem with you're car and there is no trouble light iluminated on the dash the it seems the dealers cannot trouble shoot, The dealer mechanics seem to rely on the car to tell them what is wrong.
 
I asked what the RPM verses speed peramiters under normal driving conditions with overdrive engaged are, I asked if it was normal for the car to Turn 4500rpm 55mph with the over drive off and their top mechanics did not have an answer, all they could say is "There is no trouble light on the dash illuminated so there is nothing wrong with the car."

I'm puzzled. Overdrive off??... if I were posing the question it would be what is your RPM at 55mph with shifter in D, overdrive engaged. I would also disconnect the battery for a little while to reset the computer. I've been rock solid at 23-25 mpg with a high of about 28 on a roadf trip. I have a lightfoot around town but run with the flow on the interstate 70-80 mph.

I've been driving SUV's or crossovers since 1997 and have adjusted to proper throttle input for better efficiency. With my Rogue, I mostly average 22 to 25 mpg. My driving is mixed, with more highway than city. All highway is very close or more than window sticker. On highway, i'm normally 70 to 80mph. The lowest I've recorded is 18.9, all city and some warming up for the cold. My best mileage is 28.1. My current odometer is 6500 and had vehicle for 3 mos. I'm on my second oil change and I've noticed that my mileage has crept up slightly since my first oil change.
