Since day 1.
18.124 overall average since 04/23/2008. That includes city, highway and towing several times in the Rockies.
I am satisfied with it. It beats the 12 I was getting with my 2004 Hemi Ram 1500.

I just lifted my JK 3.5 inches and added 33in mud terrain tires. I'm not sure what my gears are but it's a sahara...and i've never changed them. I'm continueing to drop...went from17.4 on the way home to 14.1 today (six days later) and every time i drive it it slowly drops 0.1-0.4 mpg!!
hmmmm

I'm rolling 35's on the X 3.21's and getting better than that......average about 16 after Flashpaq and can hold highway speeds except for big hills. Are you hauling sand bags in the back seat or something?

I get 14mpg with my 35's and stock gears and I only drive to school and golf practice and I'm broke all the time because I don't have a job since I'm on the golf course everyday, but on the other hand ive been asked by several girls if they could ride in my jeep and I love every bit of it

35's pushed by 4.10 gears and 14-16mpg
tuned for 87 using superchip.
mileage saver XS doesn't really do much for me
Going to fab a splash guard for my CAI i'm putting back in when the weather breaks again

I have 35's with the stock Rubicon gearing. My computer readout will jump all over the place from 9mpg to 12.5mpg, so I don't really know where my actual mileage is at. I'll have to do the math from a full tank of gas I guess. I got a lot of weight with bumpers and a winch, but also have a roof rack, so I'm not expecting great mileage, but I get the feeling that my mileage is better than what the computer reads...seems like it anyways. Not complaining though, otherwise I would have not bought a big lifted Jeep. I just accept that it's all part of owning an armored vehicle...well it's pretty much like driving a tank around town. I love it!! Just the other day I noticed my rear Rugged Ridge XHD bumper had some blue paint on it from another vehicle. All I could think of was whoever hit me is going to have a big nasty dent on their vehicle. That'll teach 'em for getting too close.

2010 4dr, 35's, 4.88's, CAI, Performance Distributor, SC 91 tune - tested 93 tune since that's the premium here, got better performance not as good mpg, running out this tank of 93/ 87 mix and will test 87 tune
16mpg around town - use the cruise control as much as possible, Freeway 21- cruise control 60-65mph, 19.5 at 75mph
just got back from long trip, best tank 21.5 mpg @ 70mph, worst - strong head wind 13 @ 75mph. overall avg on trip 18.4mpg - all mileage/gas recorded and hand calculated.
