i got 400 miles to a tank of gas
i just got back from a trip to san deigo and i averaged about 400 miles to a tank of gas i thought this was pretty good considering i have over 230,xxx miles on it and from what i read they only get about 18 miles to the gallon i figure i got about 25miles to the gallon just curious what mileage you guys were getting. also jeep did flawlessy on the 1200 mile trip considering that i finished the headgasket about a month a go and litteraly got it smogged 2 days before the trip. blew cleaner than new.

The most I've ever gotten is 348.1 miles on 6/22/2007, and I've been keeping track since Sept, 2004. It took 16.792 gallons to do it (20.73 mpg) with Exxon gas. The best mpg I've ever gotten is 23.75 mpg and I average 18.66 mpg (but I mostly do highway driving and I'm still basically stock). HTH

I get about 350 miles on a tank of gas when the low fuel light comes on it takes about 18gallons to fill up.All you people with 31's and bigger tire's have you changed your speedometer gear yet?
