Hmmm, Gonna be tough to get those 6 more MPG especially if you dump 35's on it, even with a re-gear. You can scoop up a couple MPG with a decent intake and exhaust and it won't depleat the bank account. That's usually the easiest and most affordable way to get some cheap MPG along with some better power and throttle response. Theres also all the little crap that you can buy that may give better MPG like a TBS (Throttle Body Spacer), Headers, A Performance Chip/Module etc etc. Some of these work very well and some just make more noise and cost money. It's tough with a lil 3.8, there's only so much you can do until it's just wasting money. Hope this helps a little.

p.s. Screw the second car man, YOU GOTTA JEEP NOW!! that's all that matters.
