With the tires at 34psi I can average 17.4, but with the tires at 30psi its about 16.2 I Guess I cant complain too much, considering the 35's and the 5.13 gears. I miss the 20 mpg average when it was stock, but this still beats myh Prerunner Tacoma with just 33's and longtravel suspension. It only got about 15.5mpg.

I check every once in a while... whenever someone posts something like this. With my lift and 35's about 14-15 mpg, but that's driving up and down the mountain 4 days a week.

But really... if you buy a Jeep and mod it, do you really care about mpg not me

If your worried about mpg, drive some little 4 banger to and from where you have to go to

I ignore that part of the dash cluster. I refuse to let it hinder me.

Agree 100%... I think I pay more attention to the outside temp than mpg
