I agree with PWAIN... a lot of it has to do with driver and geography. Once I relearned how to drive manual (LOL thats another story)... things are much smoother.
To answer the last post I have a 6-speed manual with a 4.10 rear end.

2008 JKU X with auto and 3.73, and rubi take-off tires (had the dealer correct the speedo). With hard top and doors on I get a little over 19 with summer gas and a little over 18 with winter gas. I'm surprised how little of a penalty I have to pay to go doorless as long as I leave the front panels on.
