I am getting around 17.8 all around driving according to the on board computer. 09 auto Rubicon unlimited. Long distance on the highway the average creeps up into the mid 18.5 range.

I get about 17 mpg with mixed hwy and city on an unlimited rubi with 6 speed. That is a lot better than my TJ ever got.

In town I normally get 17 - 18.

On the freeway, with cruise on, I can tap 21 easy, sometimes 22.

All hand calculated, not computer.

With a big wind behind me, I can get 25....LOLOLOL.

By the computer I get 18-19 mixed driving. If I reset going to work (25mi) I will get 22-23 @ 55mph backroads. Take the highway and it drops to 17-18.

I have been driving smarter. I didn't buy a jeep for good mpg that's a pipe dream in a jeep. I have a 6 speed 4door and I do the speed limit. I'm getting close to 400 out of a tank. I use the cruse control in the slow lane but most of my driving is highway.
