What size of tires do you have. I just took a road trip and got 25.1 mpg. I only have the stock upgrade 31s but I do have 4K miles.
I question the "25.1 mpg" you state..

I drive in town mostly, very hard miles for my Puddle Jumper :P Its up a steep hill to go to work, so after a reset I'm getting 14 ish and I think it will settle to 13 or 12 over time. Yup yup, heavy Jeep + hill to work, can't get around physics ;)

2018 rubicon jl
Hey all

I installed last week, Mopar grab handles, Mopar steps guards, Mopar winch guard, ARB twin air compressor, ARB 50qt refrigerator, warn zeon platinum 10S winch with the Maximus 3 winch mounting bracket.
Took it off road on Saturday, got some rock rash, three tires made contact with the inner fender well.

This week I’ll be installing the Mopar 2” lift, Mopar beadlocking wheels with locking rings, Goodyear with Kevlar 35” tires, Mopar reinforced Tellgate bracket, high lift mount and jack, Baja design 10” high powered light bar, rugged radio uhf/vhf radio and CB.

I’ll start working on the overland rear cabinet system.
I have on order, gobi roof rack and Ikamper roof top tent, 40” Baja design high powered light bar and three 20” light bars. Gobi roof racks take forever to get once they are ordered, I ordered it well over a month ago.

Did you get the M.O.R.E. bracket for the compressor. That is what I ordered.

Does the dual air compressor bracket get sandwiched between the body and the hardtop?

Post some pictures of that VHF/UHF radio install. I'm looking for a nice place to install my dual band, 2m/70cm ham radio. There just doesn't seem to be a lot of good locations in the JL for a radio install.

Where in the Houston area was that meet-up???
That was a West Houston Jeepers club event at a small bar off I-10 past Katy Mills mall. I believe it was called Wildcatter Saloon.
My wife is in all the local Facebook Jeep clubs, and we are always looking for events where we can bring the kids along.
