Ya know I don't know for sure but I'd guess about 17 or so...but that's with larger tires and lift and uhg 3.55 gears on a 4.0....If I could get 4.10 gears I'd get roughly around 20 or so if my math is accurate..

bought my latest Heep a few weeks ago. Got 13 after the first half tank of all short trip driving. Tuneup, ran some Techron through the next tankfull, Seafoam through the intake, flushed the tranny (doesnt help), and considering high flow replacement exhaust. Got it up to 16.4 mpg this last tankfull with highway/city miles.
