Hey everyone I just used a 1/4 tank just now and I got around 70 miles in by shifting at 2500 rpm. This is with highway and city driving does this sound good? I'm due for an oil change so after it should be better. I'm guessing I used about 4 gallons of gas.

How many doors on your Jeep? Two doors and four doors have different size gas tanks. But, my experience on my four door is I don't get as many miles from a quarter tank to near empty as I do from full to three-quarters tank. However, when I go to fill it, even though I was just about empty on the gauge, it seems that I actually had about 3 gallons or so remaining in the tank.

Usually I have about 2.5 gallons left when the light comes on, about 4 left at 1/4 tank.

I don't use a quarter tank. I use the whole thing and fill up whenever it gets below half-full. Once the light comes on I usually drive about 60-90 miles. Keep her full, that way when you want to go off-road, you don't have to cut your wheeling short because you were low on gas.
