What are you guys getting for MPGs with the 3.6 35s and 4.56 combo?

Getting 17-18 on highway, about 15 driving through town…

With 37" tires I live at sea level on the coast. 16mpg in the city. 18mpg around town driving <50mph in 8th gear. 160 mile trip from the beach to Charleston it got 20.7mpg with 456 gears. Currently have 1500 miles on the Extreme Recon. Hope this helps.

Do you know of anyone that has them in stock

No. Sorry

Thanks for the mpg replies. These things are pretty amazing for capability, comfort and being able to return darn good gas milage for 35"-37" tires with a gas engine. I'm here because I drove a coworkers eco diesel and fell in love with it. After hours on the internet, I think the 3.6 is the engine for me. The xtreme package is the most bang for your buck it you plan on having 35"-37" tires and use them off road.

Day 3 of ownership.

Congrats! Looks awesome. Two quick questions for you:

• I ordered the 2022 Willys JLU XR. It includes LEDs but wondering if the are exactly the same as the LED headlights and LED fender lights you have.
• It appears that you swapped out your factory white fogs for an aftermarket amber. Which model and how do you like?

Thanks.

So as far as I can tell everyone that has the Extreme Recon agrees the steering is good no wandering and no need for the Steer Smarts products? Also I am about to order a Rubicon Recon should I get the full time 4 wheel drive transfer case?

I ordered the full-time 4x4 .. I live up north so we regularly transition from dry paved roads to wet or ice and snowpack so the 4auto will be a plus for me.

I did not order the full time 4 wheel, live in Florida so I took a pass.

I dropped the full time 4wd on my 22 order. I didn't like the idea of cv joints. I already tore one on my ATV.
