on the highway 70-under 80 I get about 19-20. Around town is 15.
JLUXR here. 75 on the highway and I get 15.5-16 range. I do 80 and it drops like a rock to 12-13. 4.56 gears on 35s from the factory along with a brick shape. Weather affects it too. Windy day sucks for MPG

70 mile RT commute, 75 mph, average 16 mpg. the avg mpg display ranges from 14-18.

if i'm out in the country where the speed limit is 50, am very easy on the gas and i DO 50, i've seen 22+. but that's rare.

Not much information in your post, it would help you get more meaningful responses if you include details of what engine, the terrain, and speed involved.

Mine hangs around 19-21 unless I get on the interstate. Which fluctuates a lot depending on speed and wind direction.

That's normal for a Jeep. A JL will do 85 on the highway and take off like a jack rabbit from a stop, but you're opening up a gas fire hose to do it. MPG will vary wildly depending on how you drive it.

To maximize MPG keep your "garden shed on wheels" at 65 or below on the highway, as MPG will nose dive above that. Accelerate from a stop with a very light foot. CC and ACC are very helpful in keeping MPG up.

With a Jeep, just having a headwind or tailwind can mean a 5 MPG difference.

JLUR with six on the floor, I’m getting 18.5 everywhere while driving it like I stole it. Only has 1000 miles on it. I hear it gets better as it breaks in

On the freeway I get 22-24 (2 door JL with a hard top). In the city...I don't really drive it around the city much. On the trail, forget it.

What engine?
I just broke 3,000 miles and this last tank I'm just under 21mpg in commuter traffic mostly. Last weekend I went about 100 miles down dirt roads and did about the same. Happy that it's improving because the first 1,000 was under 18. Maybe I'll hget 35 mpg someday! :CWL:

Range is everywhere.
Don't know why
Axle ratio
Tire & wheel combination (weight, rolling resistance)
Grade, ethanol content and quality of fuel
Heaviness, or not, of your right foot
Existing wind conditions when driving
Etc.

Yep. Everywhere.

Regards,
Jim
