You can follow my fuel ups on fuelly and also check out other jeeps also. It uses hand calculations to build a profile. My Silverado is on there also. It's a great app and site. I use it to track my mileage, miles driven, prices and changes as I make mods to the jeep.

On a side note, I forgot to check if links are ok in posts on this forum.

2013 JKU auto
3.73
2.5" lift
285/70r17 duratracs
Fullwidth steel bumper and winch

50-60 mph 17-18 mpg
70 mph 16.5 mpg
80 mph 15.5 mpg

I average 15.5 doing 80 mph and some around town.
I actually got better mpg using 93 and the tow tune from superchips.

Just some interesting info. I was using my flashpaq to monitor the engine load at differnt different speeds and gears.

An example at 80 mph in 5th gear the rpm is 2600 and the load is 67-73%

In 4th gear the rpm is 3100 and the load was 48-53%

My understanding is that you want to have more load otherwise you have unused energy. So you would want lowest rpm and around 80% load for best mpg.
