17.9 mpg?
I just picked my jeep up from getting a new bumper after rear-ending someone. When I dropped it off Monday, it was at 14.4 mpg. Picked it up today and it's at 17.9. Wtf??? I mean I'm not complaining but how did it bump up so quick???? It did go to the dealership as well so they could check out the front end, but found nothing wrong.

Yea I agree they probably had the battery disconnected for an extended period. It resets everything after 30 minutes. I'm enjoying my days of 18mpg right now stock but that's not for long.

fine tuned my in town driving habits and now I hover around 16 mpg at all times.....on hwy trips I can get up to 17-18 mpg, but that's it. This is with gears, CAI, exhaust, and SC.
