I'm getting 22 on the gauge and 19 calculated. This is lots of stop and go, maybe 25% interstate 25% 55mph and 50% in town and in traffic.
I have 3.73's and I'm decently easy on the skinny.

I have the same setup and I'm getting almost 18. Do you live in a hilly area?

2012 Rubi 4.10 gears auto. 2200 miles now and am getting about 17. Thats up from the 14+ during the first 1500 miles or so. Im ok with this. 17 is what I got with my 07 and had no where near the power.

I hear winter gas really sucks for MPG too, Ethanol or something? Or is that summer gas?
I thought they revised their EPA testing to give more accurate estimates?
Is the big range (I get 12 vs I get 23) totally a factor of how often you floor it and how fast you go? I assume gearing and tires and racks are a big culprit, but stock they should do what they are advertised to give.

My 2012 Sport has 3K miles now, I have 35" Nitto's with 2.5" lift and have never gotten above 15 mpg but it's just so much fun to drive around I just don't care. I cannot see 20 mpg being realistic
