Default mpg?

So I bought a 94 Cherokee earlier this year. I finally got the chance to check my mpg a few weeks ago. I'm getting just shy of 23 on it and the mileage is about 8,000 shy of 300, 000 total miles on original engine and transmission. I'm pretty happy with that considering it gets better than my 02 Taurus.

Just curious what is your mpg?

The best I could get on the highway is 21 but it seems to be averaging 19, I get about 16 all around driving though.

2000 XJ

10 mpg city
16 highway
That's with roof rack/spare on top and 4 crappy HF lites and a couple hundred pounds of tools,fluids, and beach stuff in back.
And I drive it like the JEEP it is.

At least it's not another overheating, weird engine swap, or death wobble thread.
