Rubicon Manual, 4.10 33 stock All Terrains. Getting 15.3 MPG after 520 miles or so and getting better in 90% back road driving, some light towing, some mild muddy two track.... and I'm bad about warming up the Jeep on a cold day. Very little auto stop usage -I'm an old school double clutcher out of habit from the old T-90 trans

On stock Rubicon with 6-speed MT, I was getting 13 MPG in mixed City & Freeway driving (475 Miles on the odometer). I just had my lift installed & 35's, so the next couple of weeks I'll see how far that MPG goes down.

Y'all are making me feel pretty good about my mileage. Sport S on 35s, auto with 3:73 been averaging about 17.5. Current tank is half gone and sitting at 18.5 for some reason. And its been more in town driving. So I've been pleasantly surprised with my mileage. My JKU stayed in that same range with 33s. I'll take 17-18 all day long.

Now If I could just get my speedometer right...

Rubicon LE on 37’s HWY and 16 City

I just finished my second tank. Both manual calculation and on-board computer registered 15.8 MPG. I'm pretty light on the gas, so i'm surprised to hear someone got 18.5. I have stock Rubicon.

I’m also at exactly 15.8 mpg lol.

overland/auto/8 speed/AT tires and ess on.

Was sitting at 18.5 for the last couple tanks (city/highway, lots of hills). Around 20mpg now trying to be conscious of mpgs. Stock Sport Max Tow with about 350lbs of weight in the back.

JTRLE. I do predominantly city driving (short trips) and average 14-15 MPG. One the highway it is getting 17 all day long. My vehicle is completely stock. During the cold spell we had my way, the MPG dipped into the 12.5-13 MPG range but I always let the vehicle warm up at least 5 minutes, each time I start.

18.5 so far in my rubi. Jlur got 20.5. I'll give it a full tank or two to see where it ends up.

Wanted to check back in - get around 19.5 in warm weather, currently sitting at 18.7 in the winter. Best I got was a full tank NY to VA and got 21mpg. Usually 72-74mph on the highway, above that and fuel mileage rapidly drops. Daily commute is a mix of highway and backroads. 18k miles so far. Tracks almost exactly 1mpg below what my JLUR got. I have a loaded rubi auto, so pretty much worst case for a stock JTR.

I have used the remote start a few times before leaving work and I noticed it dip a bit. Makes sense. I’ve only had mine for 6 days, so the sample size is small.

16 MPG on stock Rubicon with the AT tires with lots of highway miles. The truck seems to eat into gas once you go over 70MPH and when you maintain that speed going uphill with the ACC. I drive it very laid back so no clue how folks are getting more than 16

My exact situation and thoughts as well. I am overly focused on MPG in my mostly stock Rubicon, and average 15.8 - 16.1 in mostly mixed / suburban-ish driving.

Winter temps, mostly in town, Gladiator weighs almost 6,000lbs now, averaging around 13.5-14 MPG. Spring is on the way and I'm putting her on a diet in a month or so, hoping to shed around 300 + lbs!

The MPG is all over the place, but I'm getting 16.7MPG as of this morning. Rubicon A/T, 35" tires, leveled but no lift, 2300 miles, mixture of hwy and city. My first tankful showed 18.4, I thought "not to bad" then it started dropping. Really noticed the drop after leveling the front end. Guess I exposed more of the brick to the wind.
