2018 Jeep Wrangler JL
I have an 18 2dr 6sp manual JL sport s. When I bought it new it weighed 3940 lbs after mods 2.5-inch lift, steel bumper, winch, Rubi rails, trailer hitch, 35-inch tires, and 17x9 inch rims it now weighs 4380. Over the last 374 miles, I've averaged 21.3mpg mostly going back and forth to work 10 miles each way half is on the highway and half in the city. I have a tazer JL tuner I calibrated for the new tire size. I checked the speedometer with the GPS on my phone it is accurate. I'm very happy with the fuel mileage I'm getting. Also thanks to Lite Brite I'm running Milestar Patagonia MT tires. I love these tires they are as quiet as the stock tires that came on this Jeep and handle great on road. I'm going to the Badlands orv park in Attica, IN Memorial Day weekend to see how they do off-road.

Wish I was getting that kind of milage. I am running 37" tires, and last tank only got 14 MPG. Hoping it gets better as it brakes in.

My JLUR started off horrible, about 10 MPG, but progressively got better each tank. I have 40s, 4 inch lift, added weight, and such. I'm now getting 16-17 MPG with mixed driving.
