Your location is ancient Egypt, which seems middle Eastern to me? But maybe you're just a slow driving westerner. I assumed anyone who doesn't regularly see 80+ doesn't live out west.
You shittin’ me, Zach? In FL, I’m at 80-85, traffic permitting, when I get on an interstate. All the time. Anything slower, and you are a traffic hazard to all of the other fools doing 80-90 MPH. It’s the NE folks who drive slower, not the SE. Tourist season brings the slow drivers down here.
The jealousy is just OOZING in this post Terry. You're just mad you can't do thisOk I know you asked me not too say yet but this is pretty big news. Remorseless is going to be on Americas Got Talent and he’s been practicing a trick that’s a pretty sure win with 3 regular beer bottles. But he really wants me to send 3 40s of 0ldE because he‘s sure to really impress the judges. That’s why he’s so relentless about the beer thing. Here’s the short video teaser he sent me.
This theory would hold weight if Terry could readIn Terry’s defense, did you read the fine print ?
MPG is based more on average speed than top speed. You are suggesting that you average 85 mph.
Our AZ property is 600 miles from the house and we make the drive every 4-6 weeks. Outside of that the JT rarely gets driven so yes it averages 80+ mph. The wife's commute is only 17 miles but it's all country highway with ~14 stop signs each way. 0-65-0-65...results in the same ~13mpg as pushing 85 on the freeway. Again I don't care what others do or average with their use. We've owned both the 2.0t and the 3.6L and put a bunch of miles on them so for my use the 2.0t was more fun to drive and averaged 25-30% better fuel economy.MPG is based more on average speed than top speed. You are suggesting that you average 85 mph.
Nobody else roadtrips? Weird because every time I'm in moab you see nothing but out of state plates aside from the rentals? How does they get there? Cruise 65mph on an 80mph freeway? Nobody else drives country roads with 65mph sites limits but stop signs every mile? And the OP didn't say "if you quit using your Jeep how you use it, which engine would you choose"? Why would your driving habits or resultant mpg sway MY decision?I see. Mpg stats for a scenario that doesn't match any other Jeep user....
keep digging
Like the v6 guys claiming 25+mpg that dont get over 10% throttle and never see more than 45mph?I see. Mpg stats for a scenario that doesn't match any other Jeep user....
Everyone uses their Jeep exactly like I do so they NEED to choose the same options I prefer!
Glad to see you admit it.
I see the same results as @Zandcwhite. We have a JLU Sahara 3.6 eTorque on 34s; I have a JLUR 2.0T on 35s. Most of our trips are 40-85 MPH with only a few traffic lights - country roads and interstate. In spite of the bigger tires, more aggressive tread, and 4.10, my 2.0T gets about 25% better MPGs than my wife’s Sahara. We travel over virtually the same roads to the same destinations.I see. Mpg stats for a scenario that doesn't match any other Jeep user....
I live in Montana where the speed limits are 75-80mph and if you don't drive at least 80mph little old ladies flip you off and nuns spit their snoose at you. we go to Moab 2 or 3 times a year and drive 75-85mph all the way for the most part. some times before we leave we will say we are going to keep it at 72mph for the trip and within about 10 minutes we are going 80mph.
