Thread: milage?

  1. #11
    Gas mileage (or the lack there of) is near and dear to my heart.

    99TJ, sitting on 35's w/6" of lift, 4:56 gears, armored all the way around (on, under & over) roof rack, winch, etc. (My point is a lot of weight...)

    Trail Conditions, 4Lo, fully loaded (with roof rack loaded) I get about 10.5 mpg
    Highway conditions, same load, max speed 65mph, I get about 11.5 mpg
    Planning range on a full tank: 180 mile (with a small 20+/- miles in reserve)
    (*I have a fuel gauge issue due to a bad sending unit which makes me sensitive to my planning range.)

    I always carry 5 gallons in aux fuel on-board.

    '98 TJ Sahara with the 4 liter, on 31s:

    Easy cruising down dirt roads 20-22 mpg
    Mix in some driving in 4-lo and it drops to 17-18, which is the overall average over several thousand miles (yes, I keep meticulous records).

    OK, I am sure of it, I do not like you! Well, it is not you in particular, it is the gas mileage you get!!!
