Had some family out for a few days in Shenandoah VA this last month. Loaded up 4 full sized adults plus a weeks worth of gear and hit the road. On the way out despite stop and go DC traffic I was pleasantly surprised that I got around 20 mpg loaded down on the way out and while cruising skyline drive. Also got to put the JK in 4 wheel and engage my rear locker to climb a steep dirt hill out at the cabin we were staying at. Times like that are why I drive the brick. Nothing like dropping the top 4 deep out in the woods.

 

 

Nice pics. I love the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Skyline - beautiful country!
