#27 of 32 Re: Mileage [sciguy85] by edf4 May 21, 2008 (6:51 pm)
Replying to: sciguy85 (Aug 17, 2007 6:40 pm) I own a stock 2007 Unlimited X 4x4 with 17,500 miles. It has the 6 spd manual, 17" wheels and the 4.10 gear ratio. On regular gas, I average 17 mpg city and 19.5 hwy. This is as good or better than some of my friend's luxury/performance cars, but their cars take premium!
#28 of 32 Not so bad.. by jabone Sep 21, 2008 (5:55 am)
06 Unlimited Rubi 6spd stock - on recent trip tanks averaged between 18-22. One thing that made a huge difference was putting the tire pressure exactly at the specifications. When my tires are even a few (no more than 3) pounds low I lose about 2-3 mpg hwy. Also, in decent hills, I don't use cruise control... if I have luggage etc and the Jeep seems to struggle keeping speed, the accelerator just goes to the floor... instead I just maintain throttle position and let the speed scrub off 5 or so mph.

Replying to: florman1 (Oct 20, 2008 3:42 pm) You sure you ran the wires from the plugs to the right points on the cap? If you don't put em in in the correct order, you WILL have issues, the least of which is reduced MPG.   -Paul

Replying to: waterboy33 (Apr 17, 2008 6:56 am) The lift and 33" tires will reduce your gas mileage, but unless you re-gear, it will only be about 10% less. Go larger than 33's though and you will need to re-gear and then your mileage will suffer a 20%+ drop.
