My summer average seems to be around 20.5mpg (little less with the top off). In the winter it seems to land either side of 18mpg.

I only see over 2200 RPM once or twice a tank unless i'm on the interstate which then i'll keep it around 65. That's how I keep the MPG high.

I am trying to figure out why I am getting only 14 mpg (Calculated) in mixed driving in my 08 Sahara Unlimited with 3.73's. I recently returned it to all stock and I drive like an old lady. Pathetic.

2007 X, stock (for now), 6-speed. 15,000 miles.

If I do a lot of city driving, generally around 17.5-18mpg.
Highway/Road Trip, 21 or so, although I've gotten as high as 23 once.
