93 Stock 4wd 2door 4.0 and AX 15. 20mpg... the secret? Drive it like your grandparents. It is not fun but it works.
My driving is more or less "city" driving with a stop sign/light every mile. However, it is only partially stop and go sitting in traffic... say 3-5%...

Stock tires, huge roof rack with accessories dropped me significantly (-3mpg). 1999 4.0, 4x4, GOBI rack, 14.5 mpg. Lead foot doesn't help, or me liking my snorkel roar when I floor it.

Is your tail pipe black?? How can that be possible? 6mpg? You should repalce the entire fuel system along with injectors..

2001 Sport mainly stock. Just replaced stock tires with 235/75/15 (about 29") along with new air filter, plugs, a fresh oil change, and ran a few cans of seafoam through the gas tank.
I get about 17-18mpg

My '95 which is essentially totally stock (new acquisition, hoping to change that), gets just about 20, if I drive it really conservatively. Thats on a daily route that is a mix of highway and city-ish conditions... more like towns.
